2002 Burgundy: A north wind before harvest turns disaster to triumph

Article Abstract:

The 2002 vintage is considered as one of Burgundy's best in decades as it has earned a classic rating in the Cote de Nuits and an outstanding rating in the Cote de Beaune. The Charmes-Chambertin from Dupont-Tisserandot, Vincent Girardin Chambertin-Clos de Beze Vieilles Vignes, Henry Perrot-Minot Mazoyeres-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes, Meo-Camuzet's Richebourg and G. Roumier's Musigny are some of the particular standouts in 2002.
