Blason de Bourgogne Saint Veran 2009
 |
I found Blason de Bourgogne's Cremant sparkling wines at Trader Joe's and have really enjoyed them. They are a fantastic value at about $10 and I think their quality rivals some domestic sparkling wines that cost twice that. They come from the Cremant de Bourgogne appelation and the two I have tried are the Brut Reserve (yellowish/gold label) and the Blanc de Noirs (purple label).
So I thought I would take a chance on their still wines. The Pinot Noir Bourgogne was so-so. But the 2009 Saint Veran was over the hill and got dumped. Just wanted to let you all know in case you were thinking of trying their still wines.
