This rivals if does not surpass the incredible complexity of the '62 and the breadth of nuance and perfume here is impossible to describe and leads to still powerful, very rich and full, indeed even muscular flavors of real depth and a velvety, superbly long finish. This too coats the palate and remains gorgeously balanced even after almost 40 years. This is holding very well and while there is no further improvement to be expected, neither is a decline yet in sight. Incredibly impressive and while it can't match the other worldly '62, it is more than a match for the '61 and '69 and it's a photo finish contender with the '66.

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.
Arguably Burgundy's most exalted village, home to legendary Grand Crus. Its Pinot Noir is renowned for perfume, silk and sublime complexity.
