Beaune 1er Cru Teurons 2022

Morot farms a hectare in Teurons on the upper slopes of the vineyard in thin soils with abundant limestone pebbles over the bedrock. The parcel ripens well, and in 2022, it has given a wine with a dense mulberry fruit and a firm saline minerality. The texture is dense and long, and the concentration is admirable. The vineyard was back to a relatively average yield (18 barrels total) after the disastrous 2021 campaign. This wine will open in three to five years and drink for at least a decade following this. Drinking window: 2027-2055. (Charles Curtis, MW,decanter.com,Sept. 30, 2023)
