"Flirts with a perfect 100 score. Perhaps the most seductive, charming, 'to die for' wine of this entire flight. Good solid color, with lovely violet, perfumy, floral aromas and the sort of supple, ultrarich, ripe, smooth, creamy texture that you expect top-flight red Burgundies to deliver. Could give a run to such prized wines as the Domaine Leroy Romanée St.-Vivant. Tempting now, but should only improve with age."

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.
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.
