Cruchandeau offers wonderful wines in an area of Burgundy once known for high volume and everyday wines. But he is changing the area's reputation. His natural practices and hands-off style create true Burgundy Pinot Noirs and Chardonnays that are aromatic, bright, fresh and pretty, and clearly express a sense of place. Taking a cue from their young, exciting maker, these wines are fun, pleasing and easy to drink. A rising star in the region, Cruchandeau offers high-level quality at entry-level prices.
