There was only one burgundy tasting on Friday, put on by the saintly Lea & Sandeman, who, despite being Fulham-based, refuse to act as though all their customers scarper to their country houses on Friday evenings. As a result they get extra-concentrated attention from us hacks, who, for once during Burgundy Week, don’t have to keep an eye on our watches while tasting. Below are my favourite wines. (Julia was meanwhile en route to Heathrow for the Wines of Chile Awards and a well-earned break in the Chilean sunshine.)
As usual my recommended wines are listed in upwards order of price, though...
