With time in bottle, red Burgundy's tannins soften and the bright cherry and raspberry of youth give way to forest floor, spice, game and dried flowers.

From the Cote de Beaune come Bouchard's Beaune Greves Vigne de l'Enfant Jesus and Jean-Marc Pillot's Chassagne-Montrachet Morgeot, and from Chablis, William Fevre's Premier Cru Beauroy.
