90 Points

Sunday, April 25, 2021 - This is my second Beaune wine in the same number of weeks, and my impressions are the same. My advice is: stick to white wine. Smoked dark fruit on nose and palate, pleasant but saying very little. No real depth on the palate (and this is for a 1 cru). The wine is just too light, and without personality.

When it goes down the track of bright-smokey fruit (effectively a cul de sac), Burgundy can't compete with the heavy weights in the Rhone and the more gentler (but nonetheless impressive) wines in Bordeaux.

I have also started to become suspicious of wine labels that contain more than 20 characters in them.
