"The Domaine Roty bottling of Champs Chenys is lovely in 2009, offering up a deep and seductive nose of black cherries, plums, venison, coffee, a fine base of soil, mustard seed and spicy new wood. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and quite plush on the attack, with lovely complexity and mid-palate depth, ripe tannins and excellent length and grip on the quite soil-driven finish. I very much like the combination here in 2009 of plump, pure fruit and superb soil definition. A very classy Gevrey AC."

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.
The Cote de Nuits' largest Grand Cru commune, producing powerful, structured and deeply flavored Pinot Noir built for long aging.
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.
