The 2020 Beaune Clos du Roi 1er Cru has some reduction on the nose, tightness, and broody at first, though it opens after ten minutes of aeration. I like the fruit profile here, which is wild strawberry and cranberry polished by oak. The palate is medium-bodied with fleshy, ripe red fruit, again, very polished by the new oak, detracting from the typicité. But it is a Beaune predesigned to seduce, and you cannot deny its cashmere finish and fresh figgy aftertaste. Charming. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting. (Neal Martin, Vinous, October 2024)

Golden yellow. Oak, citrus, grapefruit, fresh aroma +. Rich. A bit stimulated acidity and salty. Lemon and its skin. Minerals. Less butter. 2020 @2000/G(10500), Premier cru, 240411 — 2 years ago

Night two at Bern’s. From a great looking bottle with a good fill and awesome color. Medium gold color in the glass. Vibrant and youthful looking for its age. Quiet nose at first, and slow to open as it gains air. Then all of a sudden it jumps up to offer notes of apricot, white acacia flowers, stones and some vanilla. Decent structure. Light acidity. Overall it’s good, not great and did not have the emotion and exotic notes that the 83 Rapet CC had the night before. — 3 years ago

Well well well. Like a Morey but with forest fruit. Incredibly elegant wine, harnessing wild, crunchy red-black fruit underpinned by a stony forest floor thing. I’d love to hide this in a grand cru burg tasting; the style reminds me of 80s Rapet Corton, the terroir is unquestionably something else. Fabulous and unexpected. — 3 years ago

Had with lunch in Chambole-Mussigny as part of our adventure to Burgundy. Quite dry, took some time to open up. Maybe a couple of more years on the shelf would help. But classic mid weight Pinot Noir. — 8 years ago

Night one at Bern’s. Chosen in the cellar for its color and condition. Nice gold color in the glass. Killer nose from the start. Notes of lemons, cardamom, sautéed oranges, ginger, tan spice, honey, apricot and some vanilla. Nice fruit in the mouth. Quiet acidity at first but with air some nice structure grows. Evolved/improved all night and really delivered. — 3 years ago

Loved the subtle length, probably 2014 at work. Crisp and clean, with a hint of lemony-earthy complexity. — 8 years ago
