"The vines for this bottling are owned by Maison Jadot, and to my surprise, the chardonnay here is planted in a lower section of vineyard, rather than up high, where there is more limestone in the soils. The domaineâs pinot noir is planted way up high on the slope in the central section of this vineayrds, in what is probably the filet of the Beaune âGrèvesâ. In any case, the 2010 Beaune âGrèvesâ blanc is a beautiful wine in the making, offering up a complex and very classy nose of apple, tangerine, a touch of grapefruit, lovely soil tones and vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and impressively complex, with a fine core of fruit, a nice sense of reserve, crisp acids and superb length and grip on the beautifully balanced finish. A fine, fine example."
