"Tasted in Hong Kong. I have not tasted this since it was first released (and purchased a couple of bottles for my cellar.) It was a wise purchase. It has a truly wonderful bouquet with immense clarity and mineralité, still surprisingly youthful with notes of freshly tilled soil, granite, undergrowth and dark berries intermingling and full of energy. The palate is supremely well balanced with touches of black truffle and mushroom, fanning out nicely towards the silky-smooth finish that remains tense and vibrant. This wine illuminates the terroir."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Produces the world's most revered Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from a mosaic of tiny, terroir-defined climats. Its hierarchy of village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards makes site the ultimate expression of quality.
A thin-skinned, terroir-sensitive red producing perfumed, silky and elegant wines of red-berry fruit and earthy complexity. It reaches its apogee in Burgundy.
