âAs it is in 2010, this is the most elegant of all the wines in the 2009 range with ripe aromas of spiced plum, cassis, lavender and violet. The big-bodied and overtly muscular flavors possess copious amounts of dry extract that confers a highly textured mouth feel to the enormously long finish that is supported by remarkably fine tannins and impeccable balance. This is a simply fantastic example of the appellation that is Zen-like in its sense of harmony.â

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.
2009 in Burgundy was warm and sunny, producing ripe, rich and generous reds of hedonistic charm and supple tannins; the whites are opulent but can lack acidity, making them best enjoyed relatively young.
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.
