A very ripe and highly complex spicy red berry liqueur nose is a mix of upper and lower register aromas where the aromatic depth is the best in the range is followed by rich, full and notably sweet big-bodied flavors that are delicious and punchy, all wrapped in an extract rich finish that is also marvelously well balanced. This is really quite ripe yet it has everything it needs to age well over the next 12 to 15 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.
The Cote de Nuits' largest Grand Cru commune, producing powerful, structured and deeply flavored Pinot Noir built for long aging.
2009 in Burgundy was warm and sunny, producing ripe, rich and generous reds of hedonistic charm and supple tannins; the whites are opulent but can lack acidity, making them best enjoyed relatively young.
