Domaine Henri Germain et Fils Beaune “Bressandes” 1er Cru Rouge 2018

“Once again there is a hint of volatile acidity but here it’s so subtle as to be all but invisible on the agreeably fresh and cooler essence of both red and dark pinot fruit that is laced with spice, floral and warm earth wisps. The bigger and richer medium weight flavors possess a relatively refined mouthfeel before terminating in a bitter pit fruit-inflected finale. This lovely effort should drink well early but age well too over the short to mid-term.” – Allen Meadows, Burghound
