Wine Description

The Tollot family represents a long lineage of winegrowers dating back to the late 1880s when François Tollot began planting vineyards in Chorey-lès-Beaune. Today, cousins Nathalie, Jean-Paul, and Olivier Tollot are in charge. The wines of Tollot-Beaut are well-known for their serious but pleasing style across a range of appellations from Bourgogne to Grand Cru.

Chorey-lès-Beaune lies on the plains below the Cote d'Or escarpment with 336 acres almost exclusively planted with Pinot Noir. Initially, the Tollot family owned vines only in Chorey, but successive generations made small acquisitions in Savigny-lès-Beaune, Aloxe-Corton, and Beaune for a current total of 60 acres.

The vines that produce the grapes for this Bourgogne Rouge were planted in 1963, 1970, 1975 and 1984. The wine is fermented in open vats with floating caps that are punched down daily. The wine is aged in French oak barrels, 25% of which are new oak.

“A very ripe yet still reasonably fresh nose features notes of black cherry coulis, earth and a hint of underbrush. The exceptionally rich, even opulent, medium weight flavors possess very good depth and persistence on the slightly warm finale. This is so completely atypical that it’s difficult to rate in a normal context so be aware that while it really is quite impressive, it’s not consistent with the usual Tollot style.”
