		<description><![CDATA[The Pinot Noir of Burgundy is the world’s most delicate red variety. In poor years it fails to achieve complete ripeness and can give thin, acidic wines. ln excessively hot years it can also yield unsatisfactory results. When grapes approach or attain overripeness the resultant wine is heavy and disagreeably jammy.

The same is true of Burgundy vintages, with the repetition often occurring in pairs, at ten-year intervals. The 2008 vintage in Burgundy bears an uncanny resemblance to 1998, while 2007 is strikingly like 1997. Ten years before that, ’87 and ’86 followed a [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=oenofile.co.uk&amp;blog=2439950&amp;post=1395&amp;subd=oenofile&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
