The Beaune Greves, a great terroir, is even better – with the bouquet offering juicy layered fruit – quite floral and extrovert. On the palate rich, velvet and generous fruit – deep and long – with a lovely intensity generated by the mighty Beaune Greves terroir. Love the depth and intensity in this wine .. a beautiful Beaune Greves in the making. The potential here is tremendous as the Greves terroir is the closest the Beaune appellation comes to a Grand Cru.
