"The 2015 Clos de la Barre is also excellent, with a bit more mineral complexity and backend length and the very good Meursault AC this year. The wine delivers a superb aromatic constellation of pear, apple, a touch of fresh coconut, hazelnuts, chalky minerality and vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied, crisp and solid at the core, with lovely acids, fine focus and grip and a long, complex and vibrant finish. Toute en finesse."

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.
The Cote de Beaune's largest white-wine village, known for rich, nutty, buttery Chardonnay of generous texture.
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.
