"The 2008 La Forest is also fantastic. The stunning nose offers up a superb mélange of lime, green apple, orange, complex, flinty soil tones, citrus blossoms and a bit of wet stone as well to just bang up the expression of minerality to fever pitch. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and rapier-like in its focus, wit a rock solid core, brisk acids and stunning length and grip on the electric finish. Magical wine."

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.
Produces steely, mineral Chardonnay from Kimmeridgian limestone in Burgundy's cool north, prized for precision, purity and saline drive.
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.
