Now right in its drinking window. Silky smooth tannins, medium bodied, dark fruit and well balanced with fresh acidity. One of the best Beaunes I have tasted from Tollot Beaut in 15 years. Perfect with goose. ****

Outstanding. Blackberries and violets on the nose, medium to full bodied with plums and cigar box. Silky tannins, beautiful balance. Long finish. Right in the drinking window with a long life ahead. *****
Glorious wine. Colour dark purple, beginning to brick at the rim. Very distinctive nose, strong notes of eucalyptus and damson which carry through to the medium to full bodied palate, savoury, becoming almost medicinal. Blueberries, brambles, tar. Long. A big wine but perfectly balanced. *****
