Domaine des Croix Beaune 1er Cru Les Cents Vignes 2023

Domaine des Croix Beaune 1er Cru Les Cent Vignes 2023 is an elegant Burgundy Pinot Noir from one of Beaune’s respected premier cru sites. The wine combines the finesse and red-fruited character typical of Beaune with the structure and depth expected from a 1er Cru, making it appealing both in its youth and with further bottle age.

Tasting Notes
Bright ruby in colour, the 2023 shows an expressive nose of red cherries, raspberries and wild strawberries, complemented by subtle floral nuances and delicate earthy, spicy notes. On the palate, it is fresh and finely textured, with supple tannins, vibrant acidity and a gently savoury finish that adds complexity without overshadowing the fruit. The wine’s balance gives it immediate charm, while the concentration and structure of the premier cru vineyard should allow it to develop greater savoury and tertiary complexity over the coming years. It can be enjoyed now with a short period of aeration or cellared for approximately 6–10 years, depending on storage conditions and personal preference.

Production
Les Cent Vignes is a premier cru climat in Beaune, situated on the limestone- and clay-rich soils characteristic of the Côte de Beaune. These conditions provide Pinot Noir with both freshness and mineral definition. Domaine des Croix’s wines are generally made with a focus on expressing the vineyard, combining careful grape selection with gentle extraction and maturation in oak. Specific harvesting and vinification details for the 2023 vintage have not been provided.

Food & Serving
Serve at around 14–16°C. This refined Pinot Noir pairs particularly well with roast chicken, duck, veal, pork tenderloin, mushroom dishes and Burgundy classics such as coq au vin. It is best served in a Burgundy glass; decanting is not essential, but 20–30 minutes of gentle aeration can help open the wine in its youth.
