2023 Beaune 1er Cru Les Toussaints, Les Horées

2023 Beaune 1er Cru Les Toussaints, Les Horées

Strictly limited to 3 bottles per customer

This plot of 30 year old vines has now been replanted so this is a new addition to the range, and the last for the foreseeable future. Using 50% whole-bunch and then aged in a large wooden foudre, this cuvée has bags of elegant power waiting to unfurl in time and will reward the patient. Rich yet fresh on the nose, silky, velvety tannins delight on the palate. The depth of the fresh, spicy fruit is extremely enticing.

This wine is now sold out. Please get in touch with your advisor or one of our team on [email protected] or 01473 313 300 for more information or guidance on an alternative.

Les Horées

German-born, trained chef Catharina Sadde has one of Burgundy’s most impressive CVs. Her fearless determination to succeed, despite being a relative newcomer in Burgundy, has seen her estate’s reputation rocket. She now makes some of the region’s most sought-after wines. Her skills were honed with stints at Domaine de la Romanée Conti, Domaine Comte Armand, Marquis d’Angerville, and Cécile Tremblay, having graduated from Germany’s most prestigious wine school, Geisenheim. Les Horées is the culmination of a decade of fine tuning her winemaking skills, buying up vineyards that she loves, and working closely with a few other grape growers who share her philosophy. She now works from her cellars in Beaune, has a penchant for the lesser-known Burgundy varieties, Aligoté and Gamay, alongside Chardonnay and Pinot Noir and is an enthusiastic practitioner of biodynamic farming.
