"90% of the fruit comes from Pernand with the remainder from Aloxe; raised in 30% new wood with the remainder in 1 and 2 year old oak; the total holding is a whopping 3 ha and is often a source for négociant offerings. A mild touch of reduction is not enough to mask the appeal of the green fruit, apple, wet stone and lovely floral nuances. There is excellent intensity, power and precision to the tautly muscular flavors that terminate in a balanced and impressively long finish. This is not an especially big wine, at least not by the outsized standards of the appellation but the balance is such that this should age extremely well."

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.
The world's most versatile white grape, producing everything from steely Chablis to rich, oaked whites. Its neutrality makes it a mirror of terroir and winemaking, and the foundation of white Burgundy and Champagne.
