Tasting notes
This certified biodynamic domaine seems to have followed an admirable course in 2018. Bottled. Fresher sample than at Berry Bros. Pale garnet. Loose and relaxed and rather a relief after a whole load of pumped-up sweet wines. Like an old pair of slippers you could wear almost tonight. The fine tannins come in to view only at the very end. If you’re a traditionalist, you’d probably like this, but you’ll have to pay for it. (JR)

The 2018 Beaune Les Teurons 1er Cru comes from a 1.25-hectare parcel. There is quite a potent undergrowth/leafy note here that rather occludes the fruit profile. The palate is medium-bodied with strict and slightly rigid tannins and just misses the cohesion and "flow" of other Beaune premier crus I have tasted in this vintage.
