1984 vintage guide for Red Burgundy

drink now

A cold, wet vintage

Weather Conditions

Spring was cool and damp and the flowering was delayed as a result. The weather improved by the start of summer, and July was warm and sunny. August, however, saw a number of thunderstorms, and conditions deteriorated further in September, which was extremely wet. The late harvest produced a poor crop of acidic grapes.

Best Appellations

A poor vintage. Thin acid wines: now dead. Ignore.

Best Producers

Not applicable.
