The 2016 Beaune 1er Cru Sizes includes one-third whole cluster fruit with 15% new oak. It has a well-defined bouquet with blackberry and boysenberry fruit, crushed stone tucked just underneath. The palate is medium-bodied with crunchy black fruit, a little brittle in texture, but there is plenty of freshness here. It just needs a little more flesh to come through and fill in the gaps on the finish.
