"A historic vintage from the estate, this Beaune 1er Cru will be irresistible both now and in 15 years!"

“A very direct and aromatic nose, with great purity on the palate—a style quite different from the whites. Crisp and relatively light, but satisfying for those who aren’t primarily looking for fullness. Long. 2029–2040” (Jancis Robinson 2024)

Grape Varieties

100% Pinot Noir

Regions

Very gravelly, almost sandy, clay-limestone soils; 0.49 hectares cultivated by the estate, in the Les Grèves appellation on the mid-slope. This terroir takes its name from the soil, which consists of small limestone pebbles and sandy earth. A “journal” (0.33 hectares) represents the area of work a horse can cover in a day.

Viticulture

Traditional and refined

Grape Harvest

Manual sorting followed by manual and optical sorting of the grapes

Wine Production

After destemming the grapes, the ripest and healthiest berries are placed in vats for 15 to 18 days for cold pre-fermentation maceration, followed by 5 to 6 days of alcoholic fermentation. These stages may be punctuated by several punch-downs and pump-overs.

Livestock Farming

Aged for 16 to 18 months in new barrels (40%) and barrels that have held one or two vintages, following pneumatic pressing with juice separation

Alcohol content

14%

Eye

A clear ruby color with a brilliant center

Nose

Intense and elegant, with ripe notes of flowers and red berries

Palate

This full-bodied Premier Cru reveals itself on the palate with a lovely finish that blends the elegance and complexity of the terroir

Bettane & Desseauve

Wine rated (2026 guide) 95/100

Rated estate (2021 guide): 4*Stars (Producers of the very highest quality, the pride of French viticulture)

About the estate:

Under the leadership of Olivier Halley, Stéphane Follin-Arbelet, and cellar master Emmanuel Escutenaire, this estate—which expanded to 65 hectares in 2018—has been undergoing a revolution in recent years in terms of its working methods and its interpretation of the nature of its terroirs. Thirty hectares are currently farmed organically, with the goal of converting the entire estate to organic farming within three years. Substantial investments made over the past three years in high-performance viticultural equipment have driven this progress. The white wines exhibit both a lively tension and a generous mouthfeel, even though 2018 may not be their best vintage. The reds—whose grapes are destemmed and optically sorted before undergoing low-temperature fermentation followed by 12 to 15 months of aging in barrels (25 to 40% new)—offer a succulent, full-bodied, and deep character, with the 2018s displaying real finesse. This represents an absolutely impressive progression in a remarkably short time for an estate of this size.

Rated Estate (2023 Guide) Award-Winning Wines (This producer's wines regularly receive awards from the guide)

About the estate:

The iconic Château de Meursault, a mecca for Burgundian tourism and wine folklore—where the famous Paulée is celebrated the day after the Hospices de Beaune auction—has changed hands many times: it belonged to the family of Pierre de Blancheton until the Revolution; then to the Serre family in the 19th century; ; the family of the Count de Moucheron; and the Boisseaux family (Patriarche estate) starting in 1973. In December 2012, another change took place: the Halley family purchased the estate. Today, it comprises 65 hectares of vineyards in the process of converting to organic farming. At the helm of the winery: Emmanuel Escutenaire.
