Domaine Boris Champy Aux Coucherias Beaune 1er Cru 2019

Description

The 2019 Beaune Aux Coucherias 1er Cru comes from a parcel just below Grèves located in a cool microclimate. It is matured in one-year-old barrel from the less well-known Millard cooperage. It has a lively nose with plenty of red cherry and cranberry fruit, well defined and focused. A touch of orange rind emerges with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, white pepper and a touch of allspice on the elegant finish. This is refined and classy. Drinking window: 2023-2036. Score – 91-93.
