Recently came across your channel and i’m hooked! Really enjoy the light-hearted way you review Burgundy wines.

Insanely talented wine maker, she's called 'Princess Pinot' for a reason. She manages to produce stunning wines in Australia and France simultaneously and is incredibly down to earth despite earning quite the reputation. Happy you got to taste this.

You know I like the trips into the cellar and it works well as a garden combo. Now, if you're detecting both raspberry and blackberry then its probably that lesser known fruit which is a highbrid of them both ..... arise Sir Loganberry! We await confirmation from your daughter!! All the best!!

👍

aren't ya on the verge of jacking off to fancy labels?

In the late 60's, Gevrey Chambertin used to be my favourite wine (and it used to cost just over £1 in my local restaurant). I subsequently lived abroad for many years, where it was not available. When I returned to the UK, naturally I bought some, expecting great things, but alas, no. Either it had changed or I had. The last time I tried it was about 10 years ago and nobody drinking it with me liked it, so the rest of the bottle ended up being used to flavour some gravy. Later, I related this story to a wine buyer who worked for one of the major supermarkets. He nodded and then said "It's not you that's changed, it's the wine." He went on to explain that in the 60's it was common practice for producers in Burgundy to smuggle in a heavier wine such as a Syrah or Cabernet Sauvignon from elsewhere to give the Pinot Noir some depth and body, but nowadays with modern stringent testing, they were no longer able to get away with that. So modern Gevrey Chambertin is thin and tasteless and best avoided. You can now get far superior Pinot Noir from many other countries and as a bonus, at a fraction of the cost.

What do you do for a living, buying all these expensive wines and wandering off to eat pasta in a field can't pay much, did you win the lottery?

How nice that one of the "bricks and mortar" reached out to you. Maybe the dark fruit you detect is a mix of blackberry and raspberry behold the loganberry!! Wonderful outro was that Japanese music? All the best!!

komorebi!! And a fantastic outro too.

I suppose I'm a philistine but I prefer my wines to be chilled. My face dropped when I saw the rubber bung. That said I've never used wine tongs before you make it seem simple to use them. Only two days ago I was walking through a vinyard on tributary of the the Rhine in Switzerland. They haven't started harvesting yet there, quite small grapes were the comments from others in our group. Barbed wire to get through to get closer. I can't imagine that they are going to run away....... Shame about todays tipple, never mind. Always enjoy your garden tastings (and wine cellar) All the best!!

Fantastic silhouette on the outro👌👌. Interesting to see the semi-synthetic cork, I wonder how it is bound together. Perhaps I have one in my collection ..... Yes I own up to not throwing my corks away. I still haven't worked out what I'm going to do with them yet, any ideas? All the best!!

A fox, a wonderful mackerel sky at sunset and a liquified black forest gateaux what more does a man need? Maybe the fruit you are looking for is a loganberry not that I work for the Loganberry Marketing Council or anything, just saying😉😉 All the best!!

Lovely wine, lovely sunset!

Window pane check ,cufflinks, dark red wine...a burgundy- colored scarf would complete the look. C',mon, I dare you.

You look like someone who would be fun to taste Burgundy with

You have probably seen the current winemaker name, daughter(?) Anne.

Seeing the earlier comment suggesting you try other types of wine made me think about your pub channel. I join a weekly group seeking out the best kept beer in London alongside a good lunch rather than focusing on the actual pub. If you wish to expand your repatoir suggestions are always welcome. Cheers G.

I know you only do burgundy but your descriptions are so good it would be interesting to see you sample other wines Tweedy

My nearest majestic is Lincoln, 40 miles away but I'm going to see if it's available.

Tweedy another excellent review and another impressive sunset. I buy most of my wine from Majestic and they do deliver free if you spend more than £100, which isn't that difficult. Majestic makes most sense if you mix 6 bottles and get a decent discount. Remembering your previous comments about your stemware, I had some similarly cloudy wine glasses, but today I was moved to purchase some new ones in a sale for half price.

You should try wines from Volnay, they are some of the finest and most "feminine" red wines from the whole Côte d'Or. Have a nice day

ICYDK, The number next to where it's written diam is the recommended amount of years that the cork is guaranteed to last for. Seemed an interesting drop, cheers!

Excellent 👏🍷a good week for wine tasting from tweedy 🍷🍷👍😎thanks

Maybe a burg glass instead of a cab glass

Very amusing as always. And informative

Ive never seen a fox in real live and you seem to stumble upon them All the time. Nice review. Generic Burgundy rouge is always a gamble.

Makes me want to go buy a black forest ghetto 🙂 nice review

Top review, equally nice fox.

Well done nice sunset and very skinny fox !! 🍷🍷

I still have a couple of the 2012s left from a case I bought en primeur. You have prompted me to open one of them in the near future. The last one I had a few months ago was still remarkably youthful.

4 walls wine are the best! I was fortunate to get a bottle of Arnoux Lachaux's Chambolle from them the year before it skyrocketed for 40 quid. They have so much good and affordable aged stuff...

I don't remember being disappointed by Vosne Romanée ))

I didn't realize that your glass was plastic so it looked like it was dirty. In some of your recent videos you didn't really like the wine and when you got home you liked it more. I think that's because at home you used the real glass one. I think it makes a noticeble difference.

In 2018 I bought a few bottles of Nuit St Georges Premier Cru 2016 in Nuit St Georges for ~24 euros and it was incredible. Now a regional Bourgogne is 30 pounds in UK, not even village... Thank you Tweedy for sharing your experience!

Ab excellent presentation as always, who would have thought a chap in a field talking about wine would be enjoyable, but it is I just love it.😊

Good Bank holiday! We have been at an Ale and Acoustic weekend locally. Plenty of local cask Ales. Now on the the wine.

Had no idea you had other channels man! My wife and I really enjoy your main channel and the wealth of information and history you gather for your videos. Is this wine tasting even better from behind the tree? 😅all the best, Tony …p.s are you in the wine business?

Cheers 🥂 happy bank holiday 😎enjoy 🍷🍷

Tweedy, what are the best wine bars or places to drink wine in North London?

Authentique Epicerie ?

That might be a long-range item (unsurpizingly from Bourgogne), appealing to secondary and tertiary notes (you may not appretiate that, the mileages may vary). Probably that's a longeval wine and good to see that it works as "youngster" as well. Thank you.

I'll stick to Via Vincini Gran Rosso 75cl. Six for £31.50 from Asda. 🤣

Tweedy, an Indian takeaway accompanied by an excellent Burgundy. So wrong, but yet so right. I love the pairing you have just invented.

I'll have two pints of whatever he's drinking please barman.

Thank you Tweedy. Would be great if you do interim summary of Burgundies you have tasted. Say, starting with village levels: your top 5

ooh that sounds interesting. I might get some of that!

What you describe indeed indicates perhaps a faulty bottle but it could've just been subject to being kept too warm in the store pre-purchase ? Synthetic corks are an instant 'Non' for me with Burgundies, they shouldn't be used with any Burgundy in my humble opinion

A well earned bottle of wine Tweedy I do enjoy all the videos that show up on my youtube feed ❤

With Burgundy being an expert on disappointment, I was happy and relieved that the wine delivered. Cheers to many more bottles, and videos!
