Tasting Notes

Les Tuvilains joined the Domaine des Croix portfolio in the 2016 harvest, taking the tally of Beaune terroirs to 10 (including the village parcels). It’s in the southern part of Beaune on the lower slope, and Croix’s 0.36 hectares of very old vines are spread over two parcels planted in the 1930s. Destemmed and matured for 15 months (with 20% new oak), this is a denser expression of Beaune that reflects the clay soils of the terroir. By the way, Jasper Morris’s macabre description of the origins of the vineyard’s name in Inside Burgundy is worth a read. A great expression of a clay-rich terroir: dense and layered yet very polished.
