"Deep saturated ruby. Multidimensional nose of great purity and complexity: cassis, rose petal, minerals, truffle and a suggestion of minty austerity. Great precision and intensity in the mouth; this has that tightly coiled spring of great young Burgundy. Framed and sweetened by new oak but not at all obviously oaky. Extraordinary, slow-building finish shows great sap and verve."

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.
