Description
“From Gamay vines planted in 1978 in the coolest of the domaine’s red wine parcels, the 2019 Mâcon-Cruzille Beaumont exhibits notions of red berries, warm spices, smoke, raw cocoa and orange rind. Medium to full-bodied, lively and concentrated, it’s deep and sapid, with powdery tannins and a long, floral finish. It was vinified without any destemming. As I wrote of its 2018 counterpart, this is a serious, inherently structured wine, so readers shouldn’t be misled by the modest appellation into drinking it too soon: four or five years’ bottle age will be richly rewarded.” 92+ William Kelley
