"The sweet perfume, talcum powder, freshly cut flower, and candied cherry-scented 1999 Clos Vougeot (domaine) is a chewy-textured, medium to full-bodied wine. This dense ("This is the densest wine we produced in 1999," said Pierre-Henri Gagey), powerful, and intense wine has loads of blackberry and cassis liqueur-like fruit that is intermingled with magnificently sweet tannin. Its impressively long finish reveals additional layers of candied fruits."

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.
