"The grands crus are magical wines. There can be little doubt that Lalou Bize-Leroy makes the finest wine from Romanée-Saint-Vivant. With its dark ruby/purple color and huge, sweet nose of exotic spices, smoked meats, black-cherries, and cloves, this wine is both provocative and compelling. In the mouth, the wine is rich, long, and full-bodied, with moderate tannins, a sensational mid-palate that is crammed with fruit, and a deep, rich finish . . . .

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.
Arguably Burgundy's most exalted village, home to legendary Grand Crus. Its Pinot Noir is renowned for perfume, silk and sublime complexity.
