On the lean side but the firmly tannic finish leaves behind a salty tang.

Vinous (90-92)(two-thirds vendange entier; 25% new oak): Bright, full red. Distinctly limestone-driven aromas of raspberry, earth and smoky minerality. Silky, sappy and impressively concentrated, with black raspberry and cooler cherry flavors framed and enlivened by brisk acidity. The serious, broad tannins arrive late, allowing the wine's fruit flavors to carry well on the aftertaste. |

Vinous (89-91)(20% new oak and one-third vendange entier; the average vine age here is 50 years): Medium red. More delicate on the nose than the Les Sizies, offering scents of strawberry and stone. Then juicier and more energetic on the palate, showing lovely precision and penetration to its red fruit and saline mineral flavors. On the lean side but the firmly tannic finish leaves behind a salty tang. Winemaker Brian Sieve describes the estate's Perrières holding as our most active limestone site along with the Nuits-Saint-Georges Aux Thoreys. This wine started its malolactic fermentation sur marc--i.e., in the tank before the alcoholic fermentation finished. |

Vinous (88-90)The 2018 Beaune Les Sizies 1er Cru is made with one-third whole cluster this year. It has a slightly smudged bouquet of raspberry and strawberry fruit that needs to attain more clarity by the time of bottling. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity that renders it much fresher and more tensile than the aromatics at the moment, although I would have liked a little more length. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (90-92)One third whole bunch and 15% new wood. No great depth of colour, but an attractive medium depth of cherry and raspberry fruit. The soil retains the water here, which is nowadays a good thing. Shows a bit of oak at the back in this early stage, but the fruit retains its fresh and bright qualities. Tasted: October 2020 |

Burghound (88)Cool and airy aromas are comprised by notes of red cherry, plum and hints of violet and anise. The mouthfeel of the middleweight flavors is wonderfully sleek and energetic that contrasts with the chalky, dusty compact and somewhat short finish. |

Vinous (91)The 2017 Beaune Epenottes 1er Cru is quite closed on the nose with raspberry and wild strawberry fruit, well defined but a little stubborn at present. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp, crunchy, red berry fruit, fine acidity and good concentration. Not amazingly complex, yet it coheres nicely on the smooth-textured finish. This wine is closed under Diam 30. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2017 tasting. |

Vinous (89)The 2018 Beaune Epenottes 1er Cru has one of the more composed and refined bouquets. Vibrant dark cherry and cranberry fruit entwines with subtle tertiary, almost torrefactory notes. The palate is harmonious and medium-bodied with pliant tannins. A subtle sprinkling of white pepper enlivens and lends complexity on the finish that shows commendable backbone. In this flight, this Beaune is a cut above. Bottled under Diam 30. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2018 red tasting. |
