"Saturated medium ruby. Highly perfumed and pure aromas and flavors of black cherry, blackberry and violet. Silky on entry, then dense and thick without being at all heavy. A wonderfully juicy, classy wine with lovely freshness and lift to its subtly deep flavors. Finishes with substantial but sweet and broad tannins and excellent length. A lovely expression of pinot. This cool site was favored in the very warm 2005 vintage: natural alcohol here is close to 13.5% but the wine retains its characteristic vibrancy."

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.
