Crafted from 60- to 70-year-old vines and blessed with an outstanding 2009 growing season in northern Burgundy, this pinot has so much going on. Succulent plum, berries, herbs, earth and spice mingle with sticky tannins. It has impressive concentration and structure and could improve with up to six years in the cellar (perhaps more) or pair well now with pan-seared duck breast.
