"From a 0.5 ha parcel of 45+ year old vines. Here the style is different as the ripeness and power are more overt with better concentration and the sheer scale of the flavors is broader and more considerable. The firm and mouth coating structure is buried by the impressive mid-palate sap and this should be capable of up to a decade of improvement. Recommended."

The Cote de Nuits' largest Grand Cru commune, producing powerful, structured and deeply flavored Pinot Noir built for long aging.
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.
