Domaine Jean-Marc Boillot, Beaune 1er Cru 'Les Epenottes' 75cl

🍷 Domaine Jean-Marc Boillot, Beaune 1er Cru 'Les Epenottes' | France | Côte de Beaune | Red Wine

Grapes: Pinot Noir

Style: Elegant, Structured, Crunchy

From south Beaune's clay-limestone slopes at 230 metres, this Premier Cru is a masterclass in restrained elegance. Vines planted between 1981 and 2017 produce low yields of concentrated fruit — aged 13 months in barrel with 30% new oak for perfect integration.

👁 In the Glass: Medium ruby with a bright, youthful core.

👃 On the Nose: Nicely lifted, clean fruit with pure red berry aromas and a touch of spice.

🍷 On the Palate: Mid-weight with defined, crunchy fruit and balanced, grainy tannins lent definition by crisp acidity — exudes real class.

🍽 Food Pairing: Roast lamb, duck breast, game birds, and aged cheeses.

⏳ Ageing Potential: Excellent now through 8–10 years.

✨ Why You'll Love It: A benchmark Premier Cru Beaune from a domaine at the very top of its game — refined, precise, and unmistakably Burgundian.
