"From two parcels in En Charlemagne and aged in 33% new oak. A touch of reduction does not materially detract from the elegant, pure and gorgeously complex aromas of green apple, rose petal, green fruit and an almost pungent minerality that also makes quite the impression on the exceptionally rich, intense and overtly powerful flavors. This is a big wine with excellent mid-palate concentration that does not compromise the sense of focus and tension on the explosively long finish. This is a knockout with plenty of aging potential."

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 world's most versatile white grape, producing everything from steely Chablis to rich, oaked whites. Its neutrality makes it a mirror of terroir and winemaking, and the foundation of white Burgundy and Champagne.
