Tasting Notes
Robert Parker 89-91
Exhibiting aromas of peach, pear, citrus oil and popcorn, the 2020 Hautes-Côtes de Beaune Blanc Elévation 382 is medium to full-bodied, satiny and incisive, with fine concentration, racy acids and a long, mineral finish.
Vinous 90-92
The 2020 Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Beaune Blanc “Montage 382” (previously Elevation 382), matured in 20% new oak with some bâtonnage, is lively on the nose, just a scintilla of menthol here, nicely defined, quite complex compared to its peers. The palate is fresh and vibrant, a fine bead of acidity (pH 3.15) swatting away its core of richness so that it feels powerful, yet effortless and tensile. Superb.
Anticipated maturity: 2023-2030
