"As is so often the case chez Ente, the 2015 Referts is a very lovely and elegant example of the vintage. The bouquet is complex and airy, wafting from the glass in a constellation of apple, tangerine, chalky soil tones, spring flowers, fresh almond and a touch of vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is full-bodied, complex and gossamer-strung, with a fine core, lovely cut and grip and a long, wide open and zesty finish. The balance here is simply impeccable and this will delight from day one!"

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.
A pinnacle of white Burgundy, producing taut, mineral and long-lived Chardonnay of great precision and finesse.
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.
