The 2023 Beaune du Château Blanc 1er Cru presents an attractive nose with touches of yellow plum, marzipan and light orange blossom scents. The palate is balanced with a rounded texture but misses a little cohesion and clarity toward the pithy finish.
A pretty pale lemon yellow colour, with a pleasantly lemon scented bouquet, light on its feet, agreeable. No great stuffing but this is certainly attractive.
