"A 1 ha mix of younger and older vines that average about 50+ years of age. A ripe, pretty and again, unusually elegant set of ripe aromas that run more to the blue side of the fruit spectrum with subtle spice and warm earth nuances that can also be found on the decidedly masculine flavors that, like the Porrets, are brooding and chewy on the explosive and phenolically ripe finish. The usual power, size and weight are here but it's a bit more elegant than usual. In a word, impressive."

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.
