"From a mix of vines situated in Brochon that average 60+ years of age. The wood this displayed from cask has virtually all been absorbed and combines with expressive aromas of violets, warm earth and dark berry fruits that merge into rich, full and much more serious flavors that possess excellent volume and a suave, round and mouth coating finish, all wrapped in a finish of outstanding length for a villages level wine. This is impressive and I particularly like the intensity and punch of the finale. Worth a look."

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 Cote de Nuits' largest Grand Cru commune, producing powerful, structured and deeply flavored Pinot Noir built for long aging.
2005 in Burgundy is a legendary vintage from a near-ideal, dry growing season; both reds and whites are concentrated, structured and superbly balanced, with dense tannins and exceptional long-term aging potential.
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.
