Beaune, Grèves, 1er Cru, 2023

Available Vintages
justerini & brooks tasting note

Lightly smoky with complex savoury briary sweet mineral fruit and fine persistent tannins threaded throughout. Smart stuff, layered with fine complexity and notes of blood orange and irony minerality on the finish. Four distinct soil types feed into this cuvee, and the complexity and interest bear that out. Very good. From 65 year-old vines planted on more soils with more clay than the Domaine's Beaune Sizies giving a denser wine. Fermented with 50% whole bunches and aged in 15% new oak.

critic reviews

90-92/100Neal Martin,Vinous

The 2023 Beaune Grèves 1er Cru shows a bit more stem addition on the nose, with almost 50% whole bunch, but it is proportionate to the fruit concentration. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins, a crisp line of acidity and slightly darker fruit. There is a touch of reduction here that will resolve over time. This is one for the more patient amongst you.
