"A plush texture and expansive berry and cassis aromas and flavors make this immediately appealing. The complexity develops on the long finish in layer after layer; it's obvious this is going to be a great wine. The length is stunning and it's tempting . . . . [Only] 200 cases made. [1990 WS Top 100: Rank 20]"

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 thin-skinned, terroir-sensitive red producing perfumed, silky and elegant wines of red-berry fruit and earthy complexity. It reaches its apogee in Burgundy.
