"Good full red-ruby. Captivating aromas of raspberry, spices and crushed stone. Silky on entry, then pungent and vibrant in the middle palate, with superb life and floral perfume to the raspberry and blackberry fruit (despite the fact that the actual acidity level is not high). This boasts a wonderfully refined texture and finishes with terrific breadth and solid tannic structure. A wine of great breed, and destined for a long life in bottle. There are just two barrels of this juice."

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