Beaune 1er Cru Les Montrevenots Cuvée Cyrot Chaudron
Albert Bichot’s view
A fresh, well-structured wine with a granular, tannic underside and an attractive base offering good ageing potential.
Food pairings
Winter soup with wild mushrooms. Grilled butcher's cut.
Les Montrevenots are located on the border with Pommard, the last valley south of the Beaune appellation. This terroir overlooks Clos des Mouches, resulting in a blend of complexity, subtlety and finesse. Dominantly white earth. Saline notes are often found in the wines, with a moderate tannic expression but a very greedy crispness. This cuvée is generally the most ready-to-drink of the 10 cuvées of Beaune 1er cru rouge.
