"Medium bright red. Vibrant aromas of cherry, dark berries and minerals. Intensely flavored and pungent, with penetrating acidity providing outstanding energy and thrust for village wine. The dark fruit and spice flavors are supported by a serious structure. This estate has moved into a spacious new facility in Vosne-Romanee, close to its vine holdings. The 2007s and 2008s were racked only for the assemblage prior to the bottling. Incidentally, Domaine d'Eugenie exchanged its old Maizieres village holding with the Bichots for the land around the new winery, which they will call Clos d'Eugenie. Although these vines, located just below La Tache, were never bottled separately by the Bichots, Domaine d'Eugenie director Frederic Engerer (who is also estate manager of Chateau Latour) considers the parcel to be very promising. Along with the Brulees, it was farmed organically beginning in 2009, and it was also vinified separately in '09, with the hope that it would be bottled on its own as well."

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.
Arguably Burgundy's most exalted village, home to legendary Grand Crus. Its Pinot Noir is renowned for perfume, silk and sublime complexity.
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.
