"Bright pink. A complex, leesy nose displays scents of wild strawberry, raspberry and cherry skin, with hints of anise and musky flowers gaining strength with air. Spicy, expansive red fruit flavors are braced by a tangy blood orange note, turning smokier on the back half. Smoothly blends power and vivacity and finishes with lingering floral and mineral nuances. This is very complex now but I'd bet on it being even better with a few more years of bottle age."

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.
The northerly region that gives its name to the world's most celebrated sparkling wine, made by secondary fermentation in bottle from Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. Chalky soils and a cool climate yield wines of finesse and longevity.
The sole appellation for true Champagne, producing sparkling wines of finesse and complexity by traditional method from Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier.
A key Champagne grape lending fruitiness, roundness and approachability to blends alongside Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.
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.
