The estate and the wine |
|
|
Is it still possible and reasonable to hope to find a Beaune 1er Cru for under 30€? While many have given up, we continue to uncover rare gems.
At Domaine de la Galopière, the Fournier family meticulously crafts still very affordable cuvées. To our greatest delight, especially since the care provided here enables the creation of straightforward cuvées with great aging potential, in the pure Burgundian tradition. |

The 2022 red Beaune 1er Cru Les Sizies is truly enchanting. Its very pure nose opens up with notes of stone fruits, reflecting the vintage's perfect ripeness, alongside well-integrated oak. The palate follows this ripe profile, with a substantial, fleshy texture, and present tannins that will refine over time. A bit more patience is needed, but the reward is assured. Rated 93/100 by the Committee. |
