"From vines adjacent to those of Domaine de la Romanée-Conti in Richebourg proper totaling 0.31 ha; whole cluster vinification. A slightly cooler, distinctly floral and higher-toned nose offers up reluctant black berry and opulent spice notes that continue onto the mineral-driven, powerful and well-muscled broad-shouldered flavors that possess another dimension of depth and length. The GE is impressive but this is seriously good with a very firm finish where the stem tannins can be discerned. In a word, terrific."

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.
