"In 1988, Ponsot decided to name one of the cuvées of Clos de la Roche, Cuvée William, after the founder of this estate. This wine would do the founder justice, as it is a truly magnificent concentrated wine with gobs of highly extracted fruit and an astounding multidimensional palate impression that seems to last for up to two minutes. It is a knockout wine . . ."

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.
