Nice uncomplicated nose with barrel toast and red berry fruit.

The mid palette is robbed of weight and texture. Comes across as light, with vegetal overtones. Very expensive for what it is.

4/7 update - I applied the tasting note from the Nuit St George to the Beaune. Now corrected. In my opinion, the Beaune is a pass.
