"The bouquet soars from the glass in a complex and perfumed mélange of black cherries, plums, raw cocoa, fresh herbs, a beautifully complex base of soil tones and a discreet framing of vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and very pure on the attack, with a great core of sappy fruit, ripe tannins, superb focus and balance and excellent grip on the very long, poised and utterly refined finish."

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.
