". . . ripe yet on the reserved side at present with a purple fruit liqueur nose replete with ample amounts of earth and game influence that continues onto the wonderfully rich, lavish, indeed even opulent broad-scaled flavors that possess perfectly mature phenolics. This is noticeably less refined than the Musigny but even bigger with superb power and simply huge length. This shares with the Musigny the wonderful quality of power without weight and this too should be something very, very special if given enough time to reach its full apogee."

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.
