"Now this is Michelâs best one (although the Clos de Vougeot will run it close.) Sourced from two parcels, one affected by courtânouĂ©, which naturally reduces yields by producing small berries, this has a wonderful, almost decadent nose with pure, heavenly black cherries, cassis and minerals. The palate is velvety smooth, beautifully defined and has a real controlled opulent about it . . . . quite feminine and poised on the finish, this is a marvellous Nuits."

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.
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.
