It is usually a good idea to try the ‘Bourgogne’ wines from a good vintage, as a surplus of high-quality fruit will carry over to the entry-level wines in a producer’s range. Case in point, this from Eric Forest is a wine that far exceeds its name, with a lot of intensity and interest for the price – a lush and luxurious white that has harnessed the sun well in this warm vintage, with notes of ripe, golden apple, honeysuckle and honeydew melon.
