Kosta Browne Description
The beginning of the 2020 Burgundy harvest marked the earliest start to picking in the last 25 years, and the warmer-than-average temperatures with a lack of precipitation reduced the yield of many crops. Thankfully, the grapes that thrived produced wines with unbelievable freshness, texture, concentration, and vibrant acidity. The ancient town of Beaune is the epicenter of Burgundy's celebrated wine country and is the largest appellation (by area) in the Côte d'Or and has only 42 plots that can be classified as premiers crus. Nevertheless, only 10% of all production in the region makes it into this classification. Beaune is surrounded by some of the most famous villages, with beautiful architecture dating back to the Roman era. Aged in 25% new French oak and made exclusively using grapes from legendary Premier Cru-classified vineyards, this elegant wine offers spice notes and red fruit, bolstered by velvety tannins with a layered and complex finish.
James Suckling: 94 Points
Iron, spice and dark fruit. Black pepper, too. Full and juicy, with lots of spice, asphalt, flowers and earth. Lots going on here. From Les Teurons and Bressandes sites. Drink or hold.
