"As it usually is, this is a considerable step up in aromatic elegance and finesse with a pure, high-toned and ripe nose of red cherry and raspberry fruit aromas that complement equally pure, precise and intensely mineral flavors that are refined, dusty and blessed with plenty of dry extract that buffers the firm finishing tannins that are dense but quite fine. Really lovely stuff and classic Petite Chapelle."

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.
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.
