Much richer and broader than the Bressandes. Very competently made. Lovely stuff. There are some very nice Beaunes this year! Though this does finish a bit sweet. (JR)
A rich powerful youthful colour. The noise has an impressive concentration of fruit but is noticeably more backward than the Pertuisots, with a suggestion of a tannic structure to follow. It doesn't take long for the rich perfumed fruit to swell though. Ultimately there is more weight of fruit here than for David Croix’s Pertuisots and the ripeness is clearly there (some dark fleshy peaches), but held in check.
