"An exuberantly fresh and unusually ripe nose in the context of what is typical for this very cool terroir exhibits notes of liqueur-like red cherry and forest floor. There is fine detail to the borderline racy medium weight flavors that possess both a subtle minerality and a lovely mouth feel, all wrapped in a lingering finale. This is unusually good in 2015, in fact it's the best vintage for this wine that I have seen."

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.
2015 in Burgundy was warm and dry, yielding concentrated, powerful and opulent reds with ripe tannins from low yields; the whites are richer and generous, though some show comparatively lower acidity.
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.
