"This is the best wine in either Dampt range and while notably ripe, flashes plenty of the classic LĂŠchet citrus influence on the nose along with an intense stoniness on the textured, intense and palate etching flavors that are almost painful with their drive and energy on the explosive finish. A perfectly balanced effort that has so much mid-palate material that it could already be enjoyed or easily held for up to a decade. Worth a special search."

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.
Produces steely, mineral Chardonnay from Kimmeridgian limestone in Burgundy's cool north, prized for precision, purity and saline drive.
The world's most versatile white grape, producing everything from steely Chablis to rich, oaked whites. Its neutrality makes it a mirror of terroir and winemaking, and the foundation of white Burgundy and Champagne.
