"The 2015 la ForĂȘt bottling chez Piuze is lovely and shows a bit more raciness on the palate than the generous Minots. The bouquet jumps from the glass in a vibrant blend of lemon, tart orange, chalky minerality, spring flowers and a touch of anise in the upper register. On the palate the wine is full-bodied, crisp and fairly forward in personality, with a good core, fine focus and grip and a long, ripe and zesty finish. This is very tasty already!"

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.
Produces steely, mineral Chardonnay from Kimmeridgian limestone in Burgundy's cool north, prized for precision, purity and saline drive.
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.
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.
