"Roasted black raspberry, mocha, rust and roasted meat on the flamboyantly ripe nose. Then chewy and rich but not at all heavy in the mouth; in fact, this impresses most with its finesse and precision, and its inner-palate energy. Complicated by mocha, brown spices and a subtle saline earth tone. Finishes with substantial but thoroughly ripe, well-distributed 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.
Bonnes-Mares is a Grand Cru straddling Chambolle-Musigny and Morey-Saint-Denis in Burgundy's Cote de Nuits, producing powerful, dense yet perfumed Pinot Noir reds that combine muscle with finesse and reward long cellaring.
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.
