"Tasted out of barrel at the Domaine. Harvested and vinified identically to the Griotte, this has a different nose, a little richer and more opulent with baked red cherries, orange blossom, blueberry and a touch of oxtail...very complex! The palate is full-bodied with succulent tannins, the fruit a little more expressive than the terroir with a very pure, tense “vitamin” finish that reminds me of a Perrot-Minot. Excellent. Tasted November 2010."

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 Cote de Nuits' largest Grand Cru commune, producing powerful, structured and deeply flavored Pinot Noir built for long aging.
2009 in Burgundy was warm and sunny, producing ripe, rich and generous reds of hedonistic charm and supple tannins; the whites are opulent but can lack acidity, making them best enjoyed relatively young.
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.
