"An expressive nose, displaying a bit of wood spice and exuberant, fresh and very ripe orchard fruit aromas, is generous but not vulgar and merges into big, intense, indeed even explosive flavors that possess outstanding underlying material and a zesty, mineral-infused finish. This is delicious yet precise and while it will be approachable young, it will also reward mid-term cellaring."

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.
