Beaune 1er Cru “Les Cents Vignes”
Terroirs
The Capital of Burgundy wines is also the largest Communal A.O.C. in the Côte d'Or. The slopes are east / south-east facing with brown chalky soil mixed irregularly with clay and sand.
Tasting
Beautifully intense red ruby colour.
Wines from Beaune are sturdy, meaty, velvety, and full of dept.
The mouth is concentrated, round, rich and smooth. A powerful and complex wine with a finish on light liquorice notes.
Food Matching
Boeuf Bourguignon, veal, grilled poultry and cheeses such as Époisses.
