"This medium-to-dark ruby/purple-colored wine has a delightfully elegant and feminine nose of candied cherries, raspberries, smoke, and Asian spices. This deeply ripe, dense, broad, medium-to-full-bodied, and expansive wine is intense, powerful, and muscular, yet is completely refined and focused. Its chewy-textured and cassis and blackberry-flavored personality needed air to blossom the day of my tasting (remember, these wines have never been racked). Its admirably long and pure finish is crammed with ripe tannins and new oak flavors. It will require several years of cellaring."

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.
