Domaine Nicolas Rossignol - Beaune 1er Cru 'Les Reversées' 2017 (750ml)

The 2017 Beaune Les Reversées 1er Cru comes from higher-limestone soils than those of Thomas Bouley’s more clay-rich parcel, which is why Nicolas Rossignol de-stems this wine, lest the acidity go through the roof. The bouquet is very precise and focused, offering dark cherry, wild strawberry and light chalky aromas. The elegant palate delivers more black than red fruit, revealing white pepper, Provençal herbs and a little spice toward the engaging finish.
