"Bright full red. Multidimensional nose offers strawberry, raspberry, flowers, minerals, crushed stone and wild herbs. Compellingly sweet and silky, with pungent peppery, spicy lift to the red berry, blood orange and mineral flavors. A wine of great aromatic precision and persistence. Saturates the entire palate on the very long, building back end, where fine-grained tannins melt into the fruit."

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 the most delicate and perfumed reds of the Cote de Nuits, prized for floral elegance and silky texture.
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.
