"Here the nose is extremely high-toned with a mix of red raspberry and a hint of cranberry balanced off by subtle earth and spice notes that introduce rich, full and relatively generous middle weight flavors that possess better mid-palate density as well as slightly better persistence on the firm and delicious finish. This is really quite fine for Charmes, indeed unusually so. [Fom both Charmes proper and Mazoyères.]

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.
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.
