"An intensely floral and equally cool yet notably ripe and far-reaching nose speaks of wild red berry fruit aromas that are liberally laced with humus, spice, earth and pungent undergrowth nuances. There is perhaps even more minerality present on the highly energetic and flat out painfully intense flavors that possess truly formidable size and weight with superb mid-palate concentration. The palate staining finish is explosively long yet as with all of the very finest Burgundies, this delivers all of this focused power with seemingly no undue weight, indeed if anything this is light on its feet. This mind-blowing effort is a potential monument in the making. . ."

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.
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.
