"The domaineâs 2013 les FuĂ©es is a quintessential example of this great premier cru, which along with les Cras, is my favorite in the village after les Amoureuses. The wine is stellar in 2013, soaring from the glass in a perfumed blend of red and black cherries, cocoa, chalky soil tones, gamebird, woodsmoke and a discreet framing of vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, pure and again, potentially quite sappy at the core in the fullness of time, with great soil inflection, suave tannins and a very long, complex and tangy finish that simply dances across the finish line. A gorgeous example of the vintage."

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.
2013 in Burgundy was a difficult, cool and hail-hit year with a late harvest and small crop; the wines are fresh, lean and classically styled, with bright acidity and firm structure, especially the reds.
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.
