"This too is very ripe and particularly spicy though a good deal less exotic with more typical aromas of game, underbrush, Gevrey earth and hints of cassis that continue onto the rich, full and sleekly muscled flavors that are mouth coating and hugely long as the finish positively drenches the palate with dry extract. I really like the almost painful intensity here as well as the vibrancy of the finish. A seriously impressive wine that will require plenty of time in the cellar."

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.
2005 in Burgundy is a legendary vintage from a near-ideal, dry growing season; both reds and whites are concentrated, structured and superbly balanced, with dense tannins and exceptional long-term aging potential.
