"From vines situated next to those of Faiveley and Prieur near the bottom of the slope on the Vougeot side. This too is quite floral but here the aromas are surprisingly more high-toned with black raspberry and distinct earth notes that merge into round, precise and supple flavors that suddenly become tight as a drum with a very firm and youthfully austere finish. This is very taut with ample structure that is fashioned in a serious, old school style that will require a number of years to fully arrive at its apogee. Good stuff but be prepared to wait."

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.
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.
