Burgundy collectors are chasing an elusive high, and it has nothing to do with the wine’s alcohol content.
“It’s never the same wine twice,” says Chicago-based master sommelier Alpana Singh, who is the proprietor of three wineforward restaurants in Illinois.
“Fickle,” is how she describes the celebrated wine from Burgundy, France, in the east-central region of the country.
“It’s always changing in the bottle,” Singh, 41, says, so tastings can truly be once-in-a-lifetime experiences.
