Domaine Rossignol-Trapet, Beaune Premier Cru, Les Teurons 2015

From the upper side of the vineyard in a warmer microclimate, the 2015 Beaune 1er Cru les Teurons has a more cohesive bouquet compared to the Les Mariages: attractive raspberry and wild strawberry scents, hints of sous-bois developing with time. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannin and good acidity. It needs more substance on the finish, although that should evolve by the end of its maturation period. Not bad, although not the best Beaune 1er Cru that I tasted in 2015.
