An almost invisible background soupçon of oak does not interfere with the warm earth and mineral-suffused cool red berry fruit aromas that introduce pure and beautifully detailed middle weight flavors that are notably more robust and structured than those of the Baudes, all wrapped in a delicious if slightly less complex finish. This muscular effort will also need at least a decade to shed its firm but not rustic tannins.

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.
