90/92

The Clos du Roi and Grèves have been blended this year and vinified with 61% whole bunches, which is the Grèves component. Good bright mid purple, very attractively perfumed, floral as well as a light and pretty fruit, good acidity and length with a little white pepper tint. I think the blend makes sense.

89/91

The 2020 Beaune 1er Cru is a blend of Grèves and Corton Clos du Roi that were blended together due to low yields, containing 50% whole bunch from the former. Bright red berry fruit with veins of blueberry on the nose, touches of iris and peony emerge with time. The palate is medium-bodied with quite firm tannins, a discrete marine influence at play here with a refreshingly sappy finish.

Jeg mødte Pierre Vincent for år tilbage på Le Sommelier og allerede dengang var domænet, Boisset-ejet, velkørende, biodynamisk og fokuseret på topkvalitet. Chefvinmageren flyttede til Domaine Leflaive og Sylvie Poillot tog over. Klasse! Blanding af Grèves og Clos du Roi-frugt med ca. 50 % helklaser fra Grèves-frugten. Årgangens lave udbytter og dybe farve er tydelig, men vinen er frisk og overhovedet ikke sødsuppepræget. Whif af egetræ, sure kirsebær, smooth smag, forbløffende juicy faktisk og ædel koncentration i eftersmagen.
