OUR STORY

Almost Like Burgundy (ALB) sparks from my passion enjoying and tasting wines from all over the world. However, it was my love for wines from Burgundy that made me dive deeper into understanding how beautifully elegant, complex and unique wine can be depending on terroir, wine-making styles, grape varietals and taste profiles that makes a bottle of wine great.

And in this journey, I have discovered there are great wines that resembles the complexity and elegance like Burgundy from all over the world and of course the fine Burgundy wines that need to be shared and enjoyed by more wine lovers.

Hence, AlmostLikeBurgundy.com started in August 2023.

ALB

WHAT DO WE CONSIDER WHEN WE SHORTLIST WINES?

Each wine bottle in ALB is tasted and handpicked strictly based on the following:

Aromas & Taste

Very simply it must smell and taste great. From the nose, great wines exhuberate so much character whether it may be tropical, citrus, nutty, florals, honey suckle; it invites you in for a taste of it. As you enjoy the wine, separating great wines from average ones would depend on its complex taste profiles that unwind on your palate.

Aromas & Taste

Terroir

Grape vines draw minerality from the soil, and mature differently with each climate and altitude, and terrain. This makes every vineyard unique and wines from certain vineyards would have the same aroma and taste profile due to its common minerality structure.

We believe in vineyards using mostly organic and biodynamic,  none or extremely little herbicides, pesticides and sulphites. In other words, wines that would not hurt your body. These wines often display a fruit purity like no other, and would not end up with bad hangover.
