這次到法國東部的勃根地適逢葡萄產季，除了拍照觀光之外還買了兩瓶紅酒：
法國紅酒分成四級：
1. 日常餐酒 vins de table，法國葡萄酒中約75%屬於這一類
2. 地區餐酒 vins de pays
3. 優良地區餐酒 VDQS (Vins de Qualite Superieure)
4. 法定產區葡萄酒 AOC (Appellation d'origine Controlee)
AOC裡面又細分為三級：
1. AOC Communales （村莊級）
2. AOC Premiere Cru （一級酒）
3. AOC Grand Cru （特級酒）

Gevrey Chambertin Grands Crus介紹

Griotte-Chambertin介紹
http://www.burgundy-report.com/summer-2007/gevrey-chambertin-village-profile/2/
2 hectares 69 ares. Sited directly below Clos de Bèze. Avoiding the cool breezes above, it’s quite a hot location and always harvested before Chambertin. A more complete discussion of the appellation and producers can be found here. A small cadre of well regarded producers means that most bottles are worth a search, whether Fourrier, Drouhin or Ponsot/Chézeaux. Leclerc’s can be powerful, but is typically more rustic than the best. Crown jewel prices may also be paid for Dugat and Roty’s bottles – but they are typically harder to find than to pay for! The average quality from this vineyard is way higher than any other vineyard in Gevrey – but that’s because significant underachievers are hard to find, but the peaks in Griotte are still lower than the peaks in Chambertin and Bèze.
Les Corbeaux介紹
http://www.burgundy-report.com/summer-2007/gevrey-chambertin-village-profile/3/
3 hectares and 21 ares. Often described as masculine (remember Kermit?), this small cru is set in deeper, iron infused soil, touching upon the lower part of Mazis-Chambertin and lies east of Champonnets. Whilst, there are no large owners we have some very good bottles to chase; Bachelet, Jadot, Serafin spring quickly to mind. Put Bachelet’s Corbeaux next to a Clos St.Jacques and you will see less focus and perhaps less well defined structure but no less intensity – and the price is about half!
