Burgundy, France  

Quality at this estate begins with the fact that the domaine owns top quality parcels in each appellation. Clos Vougeot-Musigni, for example, is at the top of Clos Vougeot, bordering Musigny. The vines, in general, are 10-20 years old, and Bernard strictly limits yields to obtain the density and concentration of fruit he requires. The wines are lightly fined, but not filtered.

There is a distinct and consistent house style at this estate. The wines have deep, dark colors and wonderfully expressive aromatics. The fruit flavors are very pure and concentrated, and the wines are consummately supple, smooth and seamless. Oak barrels are used to enhance the richness and fine texture of the wine, but the oak character is well integrated and does not obtrude.
