Note di degustazione
The 2015 Beaune 1er Cru has an attractive bouquet replete with wild strawberry, cranberry, crushed stone and subtle pressed iris and incense aromas that render this complex and engaging. The palate is very well balanced with slightly darker fruit than its Beaune peers, offering blackberry mixed with bilberry and raspberry. Quite grippy in the mouth, with a solid but nicely focused finish. This has great potential. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting. (DIAM 10 closure)

Generous oaky aromas, opulent black cherry fruit and very tender tannic feel. Fresh acidic finish. Very enjoyable primary flavours, with the potential for medium-term maturation. (RH) (JR)
(from a 1982 planting): Good dark red. Aromas of black cherry, blackberry, licorice and spicy oak show less mintiness than the preceding wines. A step up in sweetness and texture from the Savigny-Lavières--with a higher pH too--despite the fact that these vines suffered more from drought (the crop was 35 hectoliters "at the most," which is down about one-third from normal, noted Nathalie Tollot). Finishes with slightly dusty but well-supported tannins and lingering black cherry and spicy oak flavors.
The 2015 Beaune 1er Cru Clos du Roi has a very well defined and pure bouquet with red cherries, crushed strawberry and rose petal scents that seem to gain clarity and harmony in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with supple, ripe red cherry and cranberry fruit, a touch of pomegranate just behind with fine mineralité on the finish. Superb - one of the best examples that I have tasted from Tollot-Beaut.
