1975 vintage guide for Red Burgundy

drink now

Another very disappointing year

Weather Conditions

A very poor vintage indeed, despite ideal weather in late spring, continuing on through early summer. While the end of July was hot, variable conditions followed. Hail fell at the beginning of August and storms followed, lasting well into early September. Despite a return to cooler, drier weather, much of the crop suffered from rot.

Best Appellations

A bad vintage: the red wines largely produced from rotten grapes. Long over the hill. Ignore.
