2022 Beaune 1er Cru Clos du Roi, Domaine Tollot-Beaut & Fils

These two Beaunes could not be more different. The Clos du Roi, whose soil is very gravelly, is usually quite delicate with wonderful aromatics and a real fragrance, although, thanks to the very efficient drainage of the soil, in a vintage like 2022 where humidity was at a premium, it is more compact and intense than usual and a little riper and plusher than is often the case. 40-year-old vines. Drink from 2027
