"Now this is Michel’s best one (although the Clos de Vougeot will run it close.) Sourced from two parcels, one affected by court–noué, which naturally reduces yields by producing small berries, this has a wonderful, almost decadent nose with pure, heavenly black cherries, cassis and minerals. The palate is velvety smooth, beautifully defined and has a real controlled opulent about it . . . . quite feminine and poised on the finish, this is a marvellous Nuits."

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.
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.
