"Good deep color. Reticent, fruit-driven aromas of black cherry, raspberry, cassis and chocolate. Fat, sweet and seamless; in fact, bordering on unctuous. But, in contrast to the '96, this benefits from sound supporting acidity. Flavors run deep. Full, ripe back end."

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.
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.
