Beaune 1er Cru Blanches Fleurs Maxime Dubuet Boillot 2022

The wine

Blanches Fleurs 1er cru is a refined wine from the prestigious Côte de Beaune terroir, more precisely from carefully selected plots of clay-limestone soil. Manual harvests preserve their integrity of the clusters which are carefully sorted. Vinification is performed in open vats, sometimes including whole bunches, to ensure gentle, balanced extraction of the tannins. The wine is aged in French oak casks, with 20–30% new wood, for 12 to 18 months, allowing the juice to develop subtle nuances of vanilla and spice.
This Beaune 1er Cru captivates with its complex nose, combining aromas of red fruit, particularly raspberry, with delicate floral notes. On the palate it reveals a delightful freshness, a lively acidity and a long elegant finish. Designed to be enjoyed in its early years, this wine perfectly encapsulates the balance between tradition and modernity.
