"This hasn't changed much since my first review from barrel with its restrained and gorgeously elegant though clearly ripe nose of iron and stone-infused red berry and plum aromas. There is fine intensity to the mineral-inflected medium weight plus flavors that possess excellent concentration and vibrancy on the firm, persistent and still moderately austere finish. This is lovely as there is evident class and grace and while this is definitely '09 in style, it retains a good sense of balance. Lovely."

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 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.
