Beaune 1er Cru Les Tuvilains Georges Noëllat (Domaine) 2020

The wine

An iconic appellation on the Burgundy wine scene, Beaune includes over 40 climats classified as Premier Cru, each more exceptional than the last. With an exceptional terroir, the estate practises environmentally friendly viticulture that respects both the vines and the land, implementing sustainable practices to preserve the freshness and purity of the fruit. The same rigour is implemented in the winery. The fruit is hand-picked at peak ripeness and vinified with as little intervention as possible. Fermentations are triggered by native yeasts naturally present in the berries and the wines undergo a long ageing period in oak casks.
The ruddy-red colour reveals an expressive bouquet opening on notes of cherry, strawberry and blackcurrant, complemented by a delightful minerality. On the palate, supple tannins balance beautifully with a fine acidity combined with complex aromas of red fruit and pepper. The precise, aromatic and lingering finish promises several fine years of cellaring.
