RATINGS

90Vinous / IWC

...straightforward bouquet, well defined, light and airy, offering red cherries and crushed strawberry. The palate is medium-bodied, taut and fresh, with lithe tannins, fine acidity and just the right amount of piquancy on the peppery finish. Charming.

16Jancis Robinson

Light cherry red. Pretty, light and red-fruited. Supple and juicy, persistent...light-bodied.

REGION

France, Burgundy, Côte d'Or, Côte de Beaune, Beaune, Les Greves

Les Greves is a 75-acre Premier Cru vineyard in the central part of the Beaune appellation, in Burgundy's Cote de Beaune. Though Beaune has no Grand Cru vineyards, it has 44 vineyards that are either partly or completely Premier Cru. Clive Coates has written that in the central section of the Beaune appellation is “where you will find the finest examples of premier cru in Beaune.”

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.
