...this remains brilliantly expressive with notably ripe but bright and very fresh red berry fruit, plum and warm earth aromas trimmed in a bit of wood spice. There is outstanding richness to the supple and elegantly textured middle weight flavors that possess particularly lovely balance and harmony as well as terrific length. This really fans out on the finish and while the overall impression is a bit riper than I personally prefer, I suspect that it will tighten up in a few years to become more precise and harmonious.

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.
The Cote de Nuits' largest Grand Cru commune, producing powerful, structured and deeply flavored Pinot Noir built for long aging.
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.
