Tasting notes
Here is the cool, floral and licorice side of Beaune, these qualities married to a ripe yet sleek body with terrific stony minerality and self-confidently dry tannins. I love the elegance at the precise, long finish. From a 2.4 hectare block in the steep section of this site, where the soil is very chalky. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold.

Cask sample. Mid to light crimson. Much more open than the Beaune du Château. Pure, intense red fruits. Lots of lovely red fruits on the palate, too, with super-fine dry tannins. Gently chewy long finish. (JH)
The 2022 Beaune 1er Cru Les Teurons is excellent, revealing notes of red berries, peonies, orange zest and incense, followed by a medium to full-bodied, bright and precise palate with good depth and cut. This is built to cellar with grace.
