"The 2013 Clos le Village is also an outstanding AC and is a bit more black fruity and sappy at the core than the straight Chambolle villages this year. The excellent bouquet delivers a constellation of black cherries, plums, cocoa, chalky soil tones, woodsmoke and a discreet base of new wood. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and very sappy, with lovely focus and soil signature, fine-grained tannins and a long, tangy and still fairly primary finish. This will take a year or two longer in the cellar to develop its secondary layers, but it will be a terrific bottle of Chambolle once it has started to open up fully. High class juice!"

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 the most delicate and perfumed reds of the Cote de Nuits, prized for floral elegance and silky texture.
2013 in Burgundy was a difficult, cool and hail-hit year with a late harvest and small crop; the wines are fresh, lean and classically styled, with bright acidity and firm structure, especially the reds.
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.
