"[from 40+ year old vines situated at the very top of the hill hard by the Château] A brooding and very broad nose offers up a mix of various red berry fruit aromas that are laced with hints of dried flowers, earth and soft spices. The exceptionally rich, intense and well-muscled medium weight plus flavors possess excellent size, weight and complexity before culminating in a balanced and long finish. This powerfully built effort is much less youthfully austere than it usually is but will require at least a decade to be at its best."

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.
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.
