"Smokey, earthy and pure pinot aromas soar from the glass and lead to vibrant, racy, tightly wrapped medium weight flavors that offer abundant Gevrey character and excellent length. Delicious, complex and very long, this delivers superb quality for the appellation. Highly recommended. [Note: since the '99 vintage, this replaces what used to be called the cuvée Vieilles Vignes and derives largely from vineyards in Brochon and northern sector of Gevrey, averaging approximately 60 years of age]"

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.
