Louis Latour Description
Our 2018 Beaune Premier Cru Vignes Franches has a profound ruby hue with intense aromas of black cherries and mocha. On the palate the wine is ample and fresh, displaying notes of forest undergrowth underlain by a silky tannin structure.
James Suckling: 93 Points
A ripe, juicy red with berries and light walnut and hazelnut undertones. Blue fruit, too. Medium to full body. Flavorful finish with chocolate and mushroom undertones to the fruit. Drinkable now, but better after 2022.
Wine Enthusiast: 92 Points
The nose of this wine opens with notes of red cherry, crushed blackberry and a fragrant hint of vanilla. Although the palate is ripe and rounded, the freshness of the fruit is undoubted. Aromas are enriched by the gentle hint of vanilla that almost has a floral edge. Fine tannins still brush gently but will become supple with time.
Wine Advocate: 90 Points
The 2018 Beaune Premier Cru Les Vignes Franches is showing nicely, bursting with aromas of berries, cassis, plums and dark chocolate, framed by toasty new oak. Medium-bodied, fleshy and gourmand, with an ample core of fruit and melting tannins, it's lively and seamless.
