Description
Characteristics and tasting tips for Beaune Premier Cru "Les Montrevenots" 2019 from Domaine A.F. Gros
Tasting
Color
The wine has a golden hue with subtle green highlights.
Nose
The bouquet shows fine aromatic complexity, with notes of almond and dried fruit. Hints of fern and white flowers lend a floral, botanical dimension, while touches of citrus and spice complete this refined aromatic profile.
Palate
On the palate, this white wine shows lovely intensity, with the mineral flavors characteristic of its limestone terroir. The structure is balanced, with a lively acidity that brings freshness and vibrancy. The long, persistent finish leaves a slightly stony impression and delicate oaky nuances.
Food and wine pairing
This white Beaune Premier Cru pairs beautifully with poultry in a creamy sauce, fine fish cooked in butter, and seafood and shellfish. It is also an elegant match for Burgundian cheeses such as Époisses or a mature Comté.
Serving and cellaring
Beaune Premier Cru "Les Montrevenots" 2019 can be enjoyed now, yet it also has the aging potential to develop gracefully in the cellar.
An exceptional white Beaune Premier Cru from Domaine A.F. Gros in Burgundy
The estate
Domaine A.F. Gros was founded in 1988 by Anne-Françoise Gros and François Parent, who brought together their respective family plots to create the estate. Based in Pommard in the Côte de Beaune, the domaine now covers more than ten hectares spread across the Côte de Nuits and the Côte de Beaune. Since 2013, Caroline and Mathias Parent, the second generation, have been at the helm. The estate practices sustainable viticulture, favoring manual work and respect for the soil, and produces wines renowned for their authentic expression of Burgundy's terroirs.
The vineyard
The "Les Montrevenots" climat lies on the southern slope of the Montagne Saint-Désire in Beaune and enjoys an ideal exposure. The soils here are particularly stony and rich in limestone and white marl, giving the wine its characteristic minerality. This 26-are plot is the estate's only source of white wine and is planted exclusively with Chardonnay.
The vintage
The 2019 vintage in Burgundy proved exceptional despite contrasting weather conditions. After a dry winter and spring, flowering was disrupted by rain and hail, causing coulure. The summer then brought two intense heatwaves, accompanied by drought and wind, which concentrated the sugars in the berries. These conditions reduced yields by around 40% compared with a normal year, but the impeccable health and perfect physiological ripeness of the grapes resulted in a vintage of outstanding quality.
Winemaking and aging
The grapes for Beaune Premier Cru "Les Montrevenots" 2019 were harvested by hand and then meticulously sorted. After a slow pressing, fermentation took place in oak barrels. The wine was aged for around twelve months in barrels, half of them new. It was then fined but bottled unfiltered to preserve its full aromatic complexity and texture.
Grape variety
100% Chardonnay
