"From Domaine-owned fruit in two similarly sized parcels - one at the top and the other at the bottom of the slope. An elegant and admirably pure nose of warm earth, subtle spice and relatively fresh red currant and plum aromas leads to rich, detailed and tension-filled flavors that display a taut muscularity on the mouth coating and relatively refined finish that is supported by firm and buried tannins as well as stunningly good length. The EchĂŠzeaux is an excellent wine but this has another dimension present. A superb effort . . ."

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.
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.
