Good to Know: A Beaune Premier Cru immediately catches the eye with its vivid, enticing shade of scarlet. This vibrant color signals the delightful aromas of black and red fruits, humus, and undergrowth that mark a top-tier wine. In its youth, a Beaune Premier Cru has the enticing allure of fresh grapes that delights the palate with its firm, honest charm. As it matures, the structure becomes more apparent, intensifying the balance and richness.
Laurent Ponsot’s Beaune 1er Cru “Cuvée du Noyer” 2022 is a finely crafted Premier Cru Burgundy sourced from eight distinguished parcels in Beaune. Bottled at 13% alcohol, it presents vibrant aromas of ripe red and black cherries, fresh herbs, and delicate floral tones, layered over earthy, forest floor undertones. On the palate, it is mid-weight and elegantly structured, with lively acidity and fine-grained tannins supporting concentrated fruit and a firm, persistent finish. Made with Ponsot’s signature methods—late harvesting, whole-cluster destemming, and minimal new oak—this wine showcases both purity and depth, and is well-suited for graceful aging over the next decade.
