"The 2009 les Cailles from the Chevillons is simply stunning, as it soars from the glass in a flamboyant nose of black cherries, blood orange, bitter chocolate, stunning minerality, woodsmoke, a touch of gamebird, dried violets and vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and very, very pure, with a great core of fruit, bright acids, ripe tannins and magical length and grip on the youthful and intensely flavored finish. This is a great, great example of Chevillon les Cailles."

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.
2009 in Burgundy was warm and sunny, producing ripe, rich and generous reds of hedonistic charm and supple tannins; the whites are opulent but can lack acidity, making them best enjoyed relatively young.
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.
