2015 Beaune, Les Bressandes, 1er Cru, Domaine des Croix, Burgundy

David’s vines are located in a cooler site at the top of the hill. Brisk purple in colour, this is tenser and stricter than the village wine, belying the almost 14 percent alcohol. There is a huge amount going on here. This is very long and vibrant, with almost blackcurrant fruit. Drink 2022-2030.

David Croix has used a small percentage of whole bunches this year which is unusual for him, but he likes this approach in years with darker, riper fruit. Yields were the same as in 2012, around 25 hl/ha. He began picking his reds on 7th September, bringing the whole crop in over just four days. The Corton vineyards, both planted with 50- to 60-year-old vines, provide a fascinating contrast in style.
