"(From argilo-calcaire and sand, which always yields a fine style, according to Charlopin): Bright ruby-red. The nose shows a note of cooked strawberry that's probably due to hydric stress, along with inviting mineral and leather nuances. Savory, saline wine with a lovely fine-grained texture . . . . this is a broad, ripe, satisfying wine with real Gevrey animality and an impression of sweetness without heaviness. The stems add needed grip."

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.
2015 in Burgundy was warm and dry, yielding concentrated, powerful and opulent reds with ripe tannins from low yields; the whites are richer and generous, though some show comparatively lower acidity.
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.
