2021 Beaune, 1er Cru Clos du Roi, Domaine Tawse

Domaine Tawse. One of Pascal’s favourite Premier Crus in the portfolio, he notes that their plot is the only one which is a genuine walled Clos and was probably the original Clos of King Louis IX. 50% whole bunches and 20% new oak. There is a clear difference in quality between the top and bottom of Clos du Roi, and this wine shows what can be achieved at the top. The winemaking is as gentle as possible, using less extraction and more infusion. The result combines the purity of berry fruit with floral notes and mineral scents. There is a smoky note that Pascal assures is the Beaune terroir and not wood influence. The most impressive aspect here is the texture on the palate, which has precision and energy that shows the new heights that Beaune can achieve from its best terroirs with old vines and talented winemaking. Drink 2025-2035
