"30+ year old vines. A classic Vosne nose is replete with notes of plum, black fruit and a wonderfully broad range of highly seductive and exotic Asian spices. The rich, generous and velvet-textured flavors caress the palate with seemingly buckets of dry extract and there is excellent volume to the firm, dusty and mouth coating finish that displays sneaky length as it appears to die out only to return. This is a bit more firmly structured than either the Reignots or the Orveaux and should require more cellar time before it arrives at its apogee."

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.
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.
