K&L Burgundy Buyer Alex Pross calls 2024 one of the greatest White Burgundy vintages of the past quarter century—crystalline, precise, and built for the ages. Here's your complete guide to the best producers and pre-arrival offerings, from village Chablis to Grand Cru Montrachet.
Read MoreDomaine Marc Colin is one of the great family trees of modern Burgundy—the estate behind Caroline Morey, Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey, and Joseph Colin. The original domaine remains every bit their equal. The 2024 lineup covers the full Côte de Beaune—Saint-Aubin Premier Cru at $89.99, Chassagne, Puligny, and a Montrachet Grand Cru that earned 96–98 from Vinous. In one of the greatest White Burgundy vintages in a generation, these wines deliver at every level.
Read MoreFew estates tell the story of Puligny-Montrachet as completely as Domaine Jean Chartron. Founded in 1859 and led today by Jean-Michel Chartron, the domaine produces some of the most precise, mineral-driven White Burgundy on the Côte de Beaune. The 2024s are exceptional. Village Puligny and Chassagne at $99.99. A Premier Cru "Clos de la Pucelle" at $179.99—95 Decanter. And their monopole Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru "Clos des Chevaliers"—98 points from both Decanter and Jeb Dunnuck.
Read MoreDomaine Fontaine-Gagnard is one of Chassagne- Montrachet's finest value producers—and the 2024 vintage is their best argument yet. Led by Céline Fontaine and Frédéric Robert (formerly of Domaine Armand Rousseau), the estate crafts richly textured, mineral-driven White Burgundy that consistently outperforms its price. Critics agree: 91–96 points across the board. Village Chassagne at $79.99. Six Premier Crus at $129.99–$159.99. Criots-Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru at $499.99. In a landmark vintage for White Burgundy, these are the bottles to buy.
Read MoreThe 2024 White Burgundy vintage is one of the greatest in 25 years; the wines are crystalline, precise, and classically Burgundian. The catch: yields are down 40–80%. These wines will disappear. 2024 belongs alongside 2014 and 2017 as a modern benchmark for White Burgundy. Don't sleep on 2023 Red Burgundy either. It's drinking beautifully now, built to age.
