"From 65+ year old vines situated near Les St. Georges. A background touch of wood sets off ripe and densely fruited aromas of mostly black berry and cassis along with ample amounts of pungent Nuits style earth. The firm medium weight plus flavors are quite firm yet not overly rustic as the ripe structural elements are buried by the abundant extract. The balance is first rate and villages wines rarely achieve this level of quality."

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.
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.
