"(The Jobards purchased these vines in 2012 and 2015): Ripe pear and an element of reduction on the nose. Denser and more expressive than the Saint-Aubin Les Perrières, with its more intense fruit enlivened by enticing mineral-driven acidity. At once fruitier and lighter on its feet than the Saint-Aubin Les Perrières. Fine-grained wine with sexy saline minerality."

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.
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.
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.
