The Beaune Grèves 1er Cru now comes from only the older vines planted in the 1960s. The parcels planted in the 1980s were uprooted due to degenerating vines. This has a precise and focused bouquet with vivacious red berry fruit laced with crushed stone and rose petals. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins. It's quite fleshy in style with a smooth, slightly piquant finish.
