Beaune Teurons
1er Cru 2020

Grape Variety : Pinot Noir

Soil : Mix of limestone and clay.

Site : In the heart of the Premier Cru vineyards of Domaine Chanson, this plot covers 4 hectares in the center of the Beaune territory.

The Vintage 2020 : After a very mild winter, spring arrived with warm temperatures in March which engendered a very quick and sustained growth of the vines. After a very short frost episode early May with no consequence in the vineyards, a mild weather with some rains settled down until end of June. Summer was punctuated in July by several and quite long heat waves. Vineyards with a clay soil were less affected by the low level of rainfalls during spring and by the summer heat. The harvest in Burgundy started around August 20, which was historically early for the region. At Chanson, they started on August 24 under a bright sunshine. 2020 red wines are generous, concentrated and beautifully terroir-driven.

Tasting : Bright ruby colour; Intense Intense aromas of ripe red berries (cherries) mixed with leather, spices and underwood notes. Delicate and well-integrated oak note. Complex and well-balanced. Very pure fruit. Long and generous finish. Score : 16,5+/100 Jancis Robinson - 90/100 Vinous

Food pairing : Enjoy with red or white meat, "Boeuf Bourguignon" and variety of regional cheeses, in particular goat's cheese and Citeaux.
