Camus-Bruchon, Chorey-les-Beaune Le Grand Saussy, 2023
This wine from Guillaume Camus showcases one of Burgundy's greatest bargains in red wine. Chorey-lès-Beaune sits on gently rolling clay-limestone slopes just north of Beaune, where the Camus family has been making wine since the 18th century. The 2023 reveals mineral dark fruits on the nose with good concentration and purity—raised in a mix of 500-liter and 228-liter casks with 20% new oak. While Chorey may lack the prestige cache of neighboring appellations, Camus-Bruchon's version is fleshy, complex, and deeply satisfying from release, offering the kind of accessible structure and elegance that made this family's wines legendary among French restaurant sommeliers.
