Jean-Claude Boisset Beaune 1er Cru Les Greves - 2022 (750ml)
The vineyards of Beaune are unique in that out of approximately 400 ha of vines under production, over 300 ha are classified as Premier Cru. The appellation is divided into two parts, north and south, which are separated by a division marked by the road that goes from Beaune up to Bouze-Lès-Beaune.
In Old French, “Grèves” referred to sandy soil that was well adapted to viticulture. The 30-hectare “Les Grèves” vineyard is assuredly one of Beaune’s best-known Premiers Crus. Seen from above, it forms a square block and occupies the entire length of the gentle, east-facing slope.
With its ruby-red color, this wine boasts aromatic complexity, combining notes of black berries, dried flowers and eucalyptus. Powerful and supported by structuring tannins, it reveals a beautiful amplitude. Rich yet perfectly balanced, its aromas linger pleasantly on the palate, offering a long finish.
