"From two parcels, one at the top and another at the bottom measuring 0.50 ha. Discreet wood sets off cool, airy and grudging aromas of essence of violet, lavender and rose petal along with an appealing spiciness to the red berry scents. The dense and very rich, indeed even opulent, larger scaled flavors possess evident muscle and power that extends to the serious, compact and very clearly built to age finale. This strikingly delineated intense effort is outstanding but be aware that it's going to require extended keeping to reveal its considerable potential."

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.
Arguably Burgundy's most exalted village, home to legendary Grand Crus. Its Pinot Noir is renowned for perfume, silk and sublime complexity.
2019 in Burgundy combined spring frost and summer drought to cut yields, producing concentrated yet balanced wines; the reds are ripe and structured with retained freshness, making an excellent, ageworthy vintage in both colors.
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.
