Road tripping through Burgundy – Best independent vignerons & bottle shops? 🍷 - The Athan Zafirov Wine Blog
Hey everyone,
Planning a wine trip through Burgundy soon and driving the Route des Grands Crus (Côte de Nuits, Côte de Beaune).
I'm fully aware of how notoriously complex and expensive Burgundy has become, and that getting appointments at many domains is practically impossible.
That's exactly why I'd love your help finding alternative ways to secure some great bottles.
We have plenty of trunk space to bring wine home, so I'd appreciate your recommendations on:
Independent Vignerons: Best under-the-radar family domains that are actually approachable for a tasting or direct buying.
Vosne-Romanée around €100: Looking for a killer Village bottle that actually captures that silky Vosne style without crossing into crazy triple digits.
Best bottle shops in and around Beaune: Which local caves have the best selection of harder-to-find allocations? Is Athenaeum worth the hype?
Appreciate any hidden gems, village co-ops, or must-visit spots along the road! Cheers 🥂
