RATINGS

92Wine Spectator

A princess of a wine, graceful and royal, showing plenty of class. Flavors are well defined, quite ripe and sweet, offering black currant character that fans out on the palate. Pure, silky, long finish.

89-92The Wine Advocate

This wine has beguiling aromas of raspberries, cherries, violets, and Asian spices. It is an extremely well-proportioned, seductive, concentrated, medium-to-full-bodied, and velvety-textured beauty.

REGION

France, Burgundy, Côte d'Or, Côte de Nuits, Vosne-Romanee, Les Beaux Monts

Les Beaux Monts is a 28.6-acre Premier Cru vineyard in the Vosne-Romanee appellation of Burgundy’s Cote de Nuits. It is on the northern edge of the appellation, bordering Flagey-Echezeaux. The vineyard has a southern exposure, and the soil is part clay and marl. It is one of the largest of Vosne-Romanee’s Premier Crus. Clive Coates calls Les Beaux Monts “a nice big wine, but nonetheless perfumed, full of finesse, even lush.”

TYPE

Red Wine, Pinot Noir, 1er (Premier) Cru

This red wine is relatively light and can pair with a wide variety of foods. The grape prefers cooler climates and the wine is most often associated with Burgundy, Champagne and the U.S. west coast. Regional differences make it nearly as fickle as it is flexible.
