"A spicy and gorgeously seductive nose featuring black pinot fruit, violets and ripe plum where the plum-infusion continues onto the sappy, textured and sweet flavors that possess outstanding detail and superb finishing power and depth. This has the extra dimensions of undeniable class and grace and overall, I was knocked out by what this wine has to offer. While it doesn't have the sheer depth of material displayed by the two grands crus, if a high seduction quotient is what you're after, look no further."

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.
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.
