Roulot, Beaune 1er Cru 'Teurons' 2023

Roulot? Priced fairly, yup.

Not just a white wine wizard. Roulot’s reds are just as ethereal and captivating. The house style for Pinot is all about finesse.

Vinified in open-top wooden cuves, with the must kept cool before fermentation kicks off. This runs about two weeks, with pump-overs and the occasional punch-down. Then a year and a bit in barrel, only around 15% new. From a warm, gravelly site, this is all black cherry and blue-fruited spice. A reliable premier cru simply given the Roulot touch.
