Domaine Tollot-Beaut

Domaine Tollot-Beaut was one of the first domaine to bottle its own wines back in 1921 when most growers simply sold their wines to the local negociants, and it has retained its ground breaking ethos to the present day. Under the meticulous control of Natalie Tollot, 5th generation, the domaine currently comprises some 24 hectares of vines, spread over a number of different sites in Beaune, Savigny-lès-Beaune, Chorey-lès-Beaune, Aloxe-Corton and Corton including small holdings in premiers and grands crus. Each wine produced is respectful of its terroir and perfectly represents the characteristics of the appellation.
A beautifully rich, balanced and fragrant Pinot Noir, showing little of the chunkiness normally associated with this small appellation. The core is tight and textured with sweet red and black cherry, a touch of Kirsch and a long intense finish. The tannins are supple and balanced.
Perfect with rib steak.
The fruit is de-stemmed and lightly pressed before fermentation. Aged in 25% new oak.
