Vosne Romanee, Chambolle Musigny, Gevrey Chambertin, Pommard, Vougeot, Aloxe Corton, Santenay, Meursault.....The evocation of the names of the picturesque villages comfortably nestled along the world famous Burgundian wine road inevitably triggers the activation of any wine afficionado's taste buds. Here, squeezed in between the flat plain of the Saône to the southeast and a plateau of rough woodland to the northwest, on a narrow escarpment about 30 miles (50 km) long grow the grapes of the great Burgundy vineyards, in the golden-reddish soil of the slope. |
