2020 Beaune Les Tuvilains

The 2020 Beaune Tuvilains 1er Cru is 50% whole bunch this year. It has a pure and perfumed bouquet with rose petal infused red cherry fruit that just needs a little more delineation. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannins, stocky and a bit brutish. Pascale Marchand mentioned that he would have liked to pick this a couple of days earlier and maybe that would have been better
