Tasting Notes
Appearance: The wine presents a deep ruby color with garnet reflections, an indication of the ripeness and concentration of the grapes from this vintage.
Nose: The bouquet is expressive and complex, featuring vibrant aromas of ripe red fruits like cherry and raspberry, alongside floral notes of violet and rose. Spicy undertones of cinnamon and cloves mingle with earthy hints of leather, forest floor, and licorice, adding layers of depth to the nose.
Palate: On the palate, the wine is structured and balanced, with fine, silky tannins that provide a smooth texture. The flavors of red fruits harmonize with earthier notes and spices, creating a well-rounded and nuanced profile. The wine’s velvety mouthfeel leads to a long and fresh finish, with a lingering minerality that adds complexity to the experience.
Aging Potential
The 2018 Beaune 1er Cru « Pertuizots » boasts excellent aging potential. While it can be enjoyed now for its youthful fruitiness and smooth tannins, the wine will continue to develop additional layers of complexity over the next 8 to 12 years. As it ages, the tannins will soften further, and the wine will reveal more earthy and tertiary aromas.
Food Pairing
This premier cru wine pairs exceptionally well with red meats, such as roasted beef or lamb, and poultry dishes like duck breast. The wine’s earthiness also makes it a perfect match for dishes with mushrooms, truffles, or slow-cooked stews like boeuf bourguignon. Additionally, it pairs beautifully with aged cheeses like Comté, Brie de Meaux, or Roquefort, enhancing both the wine’s and the food’s flavors.
