"The 2009 Gevrey V.V. is another superb example of the vintage chez Bachelet. The nose offers up a complex and vibrant blend of black cherries, cassis, coffee bean, a great base of complex soil, woodsmoke, incipient notes of grilled meats and a deft touch of new wood. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, complex and beautifully textured, with superb focus and balance and lovely grip on the tangy and ripely tannic finish. A terrific vintage for this consistently excellent old vine bottling."

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.
