Mild reduction cannot completely hide what appears to be notably ripe, and largely purple, fruit. There is good vibrancy to the supple, fresh and mouth coating flavors that possess a sophisticated mouth feel and excellent power and focus on the driving and explosive finish. While not a wine of finesse, this should be excellent and if it can add a bit more depth, it should merit the top end of my predicted range.

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.
2009 in Burgundy was warm and sunny, producing ripe, rich and generous reds of hedonistic charm and supple tannins; the whites are opulent but can lack acidity, making them best enjoyed relatively young.
