"A 1 ha parcel of 55-year-old vines and this has only been bottled since 1997; the soil here is a mix of clay and sand plus small stones. A classic Nuits nose of game, smoke and earthy dark fruit with underbrush and iron hints that continue onto the intensely earthy, rich and full-bodied flavors that offer good power and moderate but not pronounced rusticity on the long, structured and mouth coating finish. I like the concentration and the structure is coated in sap which confers a velvety quality onto the finish. This is not an elegant wine but it's certainly serious and built to age."

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.
2005 in Burgundy is a legendary vintage from a near-ideal, dry growing season; both reds and whites are concentrated, structured and superbly balanced, with dense tannins and exceptional long-term aging potential.
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.
