Hautes-Côtes de Beaune|Red wine

3.2/5 (12 customers)

Hailing from a region comprising some twenty municipalities and extending into the northern part of Saône-et-Loire, this Hautes-Côtes de Beaune is a wine with an intensely fragrant bouquet, featuring notes of red berries (raspberry, wild strawberry). A fresh, robust wine, full of character. A wonderful bottle!

Rated estate (2023 guide): 4*Stars (Producers of the very highest quality, the pride of French viticulture)

About the estate:

From Cazetiers to Bouzeron, this major Beaune wine merchant founded in 1731 owns more than 142 plots spanning 130 hectares of vineyards, including 73 hectares of Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards. This first-rate viticultural heritage enables Frédéric Weber, a talented winemaker who previously managed Château de Poncié, to produce approximately 600,000 bottles out of the total three million produced here each year; the majority of production comes from purchased grapes for the great reds and from carefully selected musts for the whites, other than those from the estate. Impressive success with both whites and reds in recent vintages.

Review by Mr. BERNARD B. Published on May 9, 2016

Surprisingly well-structured for a wine of this age, but I think it needs to be left in the cellar for another year or two to reach its full potential. For the price, it’s an excellent choice you won’t want to miss.
