"From a 0.72 ha parcel . . . . the aromatic profile of the Poruzots is notably different than that of the Goutte d'Or as here the fruit is much greener than the largely yellow variety expressed by the latter terroir. There is also no hint of topicality as the floral and citrus notes are clean, pure and cool with additional notes of citrus and white flower that precede rich, full-bodied and weighty flavors that are relatively powerful, even to the point of opulence yet they remains focused and refreshingly dry on the admirably long 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.
The Cote de Beaune's largest white-wine village, known for rich, nutty, buttery Chardonnay of generous texture.
The world's most versatile white grape, producing everything from steely Chablis to rich, oaked whites. Its neutrality makes it a mirror of terroir and winemaking, and the foundation of white Burgundy and Champagne.
