Largest Grand Cru of Morey-Saint-Denis (16. 9 ha) in the Cote de Nuits, 100% Pinot Noir: deep red combining the power of neighbouring Gevrey-Chambertin and the grace of Chambolle-Musigny — dense ruby robe, nose of black cherry, blackberry, raspberry then truffle, undergrowth, leather and spices at maturity. Hard limestone soils over marly subsoil, east-facing mid-slope. Structured and tannic when young, silky and complex with age, can age 15-30 years.
