"From Les Treux and Poulaillères. A very fresh yet somber spicy black fruit nose redolent of earth and Asian spices with a touch of hoisin merges into big-bodied and very ripe flavors that possess ample volume with the firm tannins completely buffered by the generous sap. This is an intense and powerful wine that should easily repay a cellar snooze of up to a decade, perhaps slightly longer though because of all the sap, it's actually relatively civilized today and could be enjoyed with the right foods."

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.
