Product Overview
Winery's Notes
"The Beaune appellation is the most extensive AOC of the Côte d’Or: the red vines spread over a surface area of 362 ha of which 277 are Premier Crus. According to the placement of the vines, nuances appear: wines from the north are often intense and powerful, whereas wines from the south are rather supple and round. The climate “Aux Cras” is situated on the left side of the Beaune Mountain. Altitude: 250 meters. Exposure: east, south-east.
Beautiful dark garnet color with intense violets hints. The nose is very delicate with aromas of flours (violettes, roses) and light notes of fruits like blackcurrant sand blackberries buds. Nice minerality on the palate, also very elagant and a little bit spicy. The final is a little salty and a bit draining. This wine is very well balanced, rich and elegant with a fine adgeing potential."

"Mint and tomato leaf notes on the vegetal side are aligned with blackberry, boysenberry and plum fruit in this exotic red, with sweet spices from new oak. Juicy and put together, showing excellent length. Drink now through 2038. 250 cases made, 28 cases imported." -BS, 11/30/25
