2019 Givry Rouge 1er Cru “La Brulée”
François LumppAt my wedding last September, great wine was flowing, music was playing on the dance floor, and my wife and I could hardly take a moment to enjoy it all. We were so wrapped up in the “fog of war” that we could hardly enjoy a glass of wine or a bite of food. I knew I was drinking good wine, but I seemed to be gulping it down between greeting, dancing, and pictures. One wine stopped me in my tracks at the first sip. I made a beeline for the bar to see what they were pouring. To my delight, it was La Brûlée from François Lumpp. With forward ripe berry fruit aromas and a velvety finish, this wine cut through the chaos. I savored every sip of that wine and every moment of that day.

About The Producer
Domaine François Lumpp
About The Region
Burgundy
In eastern central France, Burgundy is nestled between the wine regions of Champagne to the north, the Jura to the east, the Loire to the west, and the Rhône to the south. This is the terroir par excellence for producing world-class Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.
The southeast-facing hillside between Dijon in the north and Maranges in the south is known as the Côte d’Or or “golden slope.” The Côte d’Or comprises two main sections, both composed of limestone and clay soils: the Côte de Nuits in the northern sector, and the Côte de Beaune in the south. Both areas produce magnificent whites and reds, although the Côte de Beaune produces more white wine and the Côte de Nuits more red.
Chablis is Burgundy’s northern outpost, known for its flinty and age-worthy Chardonnays planted in Kimmeridgian limestone on an ancient seabed. Vézelay is a smaller area south of Chablis with similar qualities, although the limestone there is not Kimmeridgian.
To the south of the Côte de Beaune, the Côte Chalonnaise extends from Chagny on its northern end, down past Chalon-sur-Saône and encompasses the appellations of Bouzeron in the north, followed by Rully, Mercurey, Givry, and Montagny.
Directly south of the Chalonnaise begins the Côte Mâconnais, which extends south past Mâcon to the hamlets of Fuissé, Vinzelles, Chaintré, and Saint-Véran. The Mâconnais is prime Chardonnay country and contains an incredible diversity of soils.
