A straight and zesty Beaune, with notes of cranberries, cherry stones, white pepper and some seaweed. Bright touch of orange zest and rosemary, too. Medium-bodied, with gently herbal tannins on the mid-palate. Very clear and transparent, particularly at the finish. Try from 2024.

This red is tightly wound and austere, with black cherry and blackberry fruit encased in firm, dense tannins. Shows a solid fruit core, with a mineral element emerging on the finish, so be patient with this one.
