"Good pale straw-yellow. Clove, wet stone, flint and oyster shell on the mineral-driven nose. Fat and rich but less sweet and expressive today than the Vaudesirs. Hints of mirabelle, licorice and pepper are currently dominated by stone. Fine-grained but holding back today, with a slightly phenolic finish that calls for patience. I'd like to revisit this wine in five years."

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.
