93 ST "Deeper, more exotic aromas of apricot, nuts, clove and smoky oak. A step up in concentration of fruit and density from the Bienvenue. Impressively round and dense, with a rich, sweet flavor of ripe pineapple. Pernot's 2002 Batard is longer but not obviously stronger than this. The 2002 is more mentholated, backward and serious than this, notes Pernot, while the opposite is true for the two vintages of Bienvenue."

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 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.
