Chorey-Les-Beaune, Côte de Beaune
Vines planted in 1963, 1970, 1975 and 1984. 25% new oak. Delicate aromas of flower, cherries, and sweet herbs which shows on the palate, along with rusticity, texture and subtle richness that comes from the 18 months maturation in oak, showing some vanilla and spice.
“Everything about this fine Domaine is attractive – even the elaborately decorated concrete cuvees. The Tollot’s and the Beaut’s have remained together through generations and therefore have maintained excellent and valuable vineyard holdings. The current generation – cousins Nathalie, Jean-Paul and Olivier direct the Domaine. They have made substantial changes viticulturally and invested in a high-tech sorting table. Consequently, the quality has risen further at this progressive and fine Domaine. The yields are low and the wines are racked less; always a consistent source of delightful and serious Burgundy that represents excellent value coupled with its wonderfully stylish presentation.”
