Beaune, Grèves, 1er Cru, 2022

One of the great Beaune vineyards, this has cooler dark fruit, with notes of cinnamon and orange peel, great persistence and length. There’s complexity here, as the polished earthy notes rub shoulders with cool berry fruit and rocky minerals. Long and tonic; a serious wine from a magnificent terroir. An emblematic Tollot Beaut wine, a parcel first bought by Nathalie and Paul Tollot’s great, great grandfather. The current vines were planted in 1968.
