". . . this most recent bottle was nothing short of brilliant with the intrinsic elegance of the '62 vintage very much on display with its ethereal and perfumed aromas of sous bois, spice, rose petal, Asian-style tea and a hint of sandalwood. There is equally excellent refinement to the fully resolved and almost delicate middle weight flavors that deliver simply stunning persistent on the balanced finish. All I could say after drinking the first glass was "wow", which is admittedly not especially profound but this is a genuinely wonderful wine."

Arguably Burgundy's most exalted village, home to legendary Grand Crus. Its Pinot Noir is renowned for perfume, silk and sublime complexity.
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.
