"Very generous wood where vanilla and oak spice notes presently dominate the otherwise fresh white flower nose that is followed by rich and notably powerful big-bodied flavors that ooze a fine minerality onto the palate along with plenty of dry extract, all wrapped in a superbly complex and lingering finish. This is presently carrying too much wood for my taste but the density appears to be sufficient to successfully absorb it and thus, the benefit of the doubt is extended."

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.
Produces steely, mineral Chardonnay from Kimmeridgian limestone in Burgundy's cool north, prized for precision, purity and saline drive.
The world's most versatile white grape, producing everything from steely Chablis to rich, oaked whites. Its neutrality makes it a mirror of terroir and winemaking, and the foundation of white Burgundy and Champagne.
