Elegant reds, light in colour with silky tannins, showing strawberry, cherry and raspberry aromas, evolving to forest floor, mushroom and spice with age. Fresh acidity, delicate finish. Star of the Côte d'Or (Romanée-Conti, Chambertin, Volnay), pillar of Champagne (Blanc de Noirs) and signature of Oregon, Central Otago and Sonoma Coast. An early-ripening Burgundian variety, one of the world's greatest.

The wine region of Auxey-Duresses Premier Cru

Nine Premier Cru climats on the south-facing Montagne de Bourdon slopes (Côte de Beaune): mostly Pinot Noir (27 ha) with structured and austere profiles evoking a lighter Pommard — ruby colour, cherry, raspberry, undergrowth and spice aromas, ageing 5–15 years. Chardonnay (2 ha) as taut whites recalling a leaner Meursault, almond, apple and flint notes. Clay-limestone soils, flagship climats: Les Duresses, Climat du Val, Clos du Val, La Chapelle.


The wine region of Burgundy

Absolute reference for great terroir wines: opulent, mineral Chardonnay in whites (chiselled Chablis, buttery Meursault, majestic Montrachet), fine and silky Pinot Noir in reds (full-bodied Gevrey, structured Pommard, delicate Volnay). Exceptional age-worthy wines with complex notes - red fruits, undergrowth, butter, hazelnut. Some lively Aligoté and light Gamay (Mâconnais). 29,500 ha, 84 tiered AOCs (Régionale, Village, 1er Cru, Grand Cru), 1,247 UNESCO Climats.

The word of the wine: Erinosis

Generally benign condition caused by a very small mite. The infested leaves show blisters on the upper surface, sometimes reddish, sometimes green, to which corresponds on the lower surface a dense felting, first pinkish white, then brownish or reddish.
