"The bouquet is deep, complex and extremely elegant, as it offers up a mélange of plums, black cherries, soil tones, violets, cocoa, a bit of citrus zest and a gentle base of vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is full-bodied, pure and racy, with great structure again, a sappy core of fruit, and grand cru weight and grip on the long, suavely tannic and soil-driven finish."

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.
