"Near-perfect Pinot Noir. Tough and hard but packed with so much flavor, earth and mineral, it just bounces like a ball all over the palate, teasing you with nuances you didn't think you were able to pick up. Elegant, racy and aristocratic, it has terroir etched in. Full-bodied, long and marvelously classy. Thank heavens such a wine is made."

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.
Arguably Burgundy's most exalted village, home to legendary Grand Crus. Its Pinot Noir is renowned for perfume, silk and sublime complexity.
