"From a 0.12 ha parcel. This is also aromatically discreet though aggressive swirling liberates an ultra pure, refined and airy nose of highly spiced red and blue berries and plum that is also quite cool and minerally and this restraint continues onto the precise and moderately austere broad-shouldered flavors that are supported by refined tannins and genuinely incredible length. This is an intensely mineral-suffused yet velvety wine that should mature into a great example of the appellation as the potential is certainly here. In a word, brilliant."

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.
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.
