Beaune 'Les Blanches Fleurs', Domaine Tollot-Beaut 2020
Located just north of the Beaune Premier Cru of Clos Du Roi, Domaine Tollot-Beaut's Les Blanches Fleurs is among the finest Beaune wines you'll encounter, even though it isn't from a Premier Cru vineyard. This wine is generous and well-fruited, showcasing the signature elegance and sophistication that Tollot-Beaut is known for. It can be enjoyed relatively young, offering vibrant fruit flavours and lively acidity. At this stage, it will be fresh and aromatic, with red berry notes and a subtle floral character.
Pommard, Domaine Benoit Girardin 2023
"From two parcels—Les Lambots near Volnay and En Mareau—this Pommard strikes a balance between elegance and power. The nose offers vibrant red fruit, with cherries, red currants, and a hint of warm spice. The palate is silky yet grippy, with fine tannins providing structure and excellent balance." Our note Son of Yves and nephew of Vincent, Benoit Girardin has steadily carved out his own reputation and is already turning heads in the Parisian restaurant scene. 2023 was a standout vintage for Girardin, delivering both quantity and quality. While white yields were typical, the reds saw an unprecedented abundance. The whites were harvested first, beginning on September 7th, with the reds following on September 10th. Whites show a harmonious balance between sugar and acidity, with greater maturity and slightly softer acidity compared to 2022. The reds are all 100% destemmed with no fining or filtration, while the whites retain purity and definition with meticulous filtration.
