Agnes and Didier Dauvissat’s Beauroy sings with racy florals and minerals with surprising richness. The wine sees a tiny amount of oak, giving it a wonderful baked apple, quince paste and citrus personality that complements the minerality and chamomile notes. Long and intriguing, with a slight hint of salinity and sea spray.
Beauroy is a well-exposed, south-facing premier cru on the left bank of the Serein River, which cuts through the centre of the appellation. It has rich soil of clay and limestone with lots of fossilized oysters.
