"The color is unusually intense for this wine and indicates a high consistency. The aroma only seems compressed and comes out in the glass with force and energy more than complexity. The scents are of black cherry, raspberry, licorice and pine bark with a lingering balsamic sensation that becomes one of eucalyptus. After some textbook spice, the flavor reveals it strength and character maintaining the fruit throughout the aftertaste. The mouthfeel is full, rich and robust with a strong impact on the palate. Even after ten years it still seems to have a long life ahead of it."

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.
Produces the most delicate and perfumed reds of the Cote de Nuits, prized for floral elegance and silky texture.
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.
