The welcome return of Croix’s Beaune village to our allocation. The sourcing of this wine depends on the vintage. Alongside two village parcels, Pointes de Tuvilain and Blanchisserie, the 2021 includes the harvest from the domaine’s small parcel of vines in Beaune 1er Cru Bas les Teurons, which was declassified to this cuvée this year. The vines were planted between 1957 and 2010, and all parcels have been organically farmed since 2008. Croix incorporated approximately 10% whole clusters, and the wine was bottled unfiltered.

Reviews

"The 2021 Beaune Village, a blend of two lieux-dits, has a slightly more austere, graphite-tinged bouquet, but there is ample fruit here. The palate is medium-bodied, bright and lively. Vivid, mineral-infused dark red fruit appears towards the linear finish. Classy for its status."
89-91 points, Neal Martin, Vinous
“Mostly derived from a parcel known as La pointe des Tuvilains, Croix's 2021 Beaune Village has turned out nicely, offering up aromas of sweet red berries, plums, blood orange and peonies. Medium to full-bodied, ample and layered, with a fleshy core of fruit, melting tannins and a saline finish. It's an over-performer that will offer delicious drinking on release and for more than a decade after.”
88-90 points, William Kelley, The Wine Advocate
“A blend of Point de Tuvilains, Blanchisserie and 1er cru Bas de Theurons. A darker colour and a more sombre nose. Some whole bunch vivacity. A rich pure red fruit. There is significant density but less elegance here. Drink from 2025-2030.”
