Apparently, the 2014 Beaune 1er Cru les Marconnets was the least hailed of the Beaune crus. That shows in the aromatics that display the most purity and delineation, quite floral in style, the oak nicely integrated here. The palate is well balanced with succulent ripe fruit, mineral-driven and tensile, cohesive with lovely blueberry and cassis notes towards the finish. This is excellent, with the substance to repay bottle age.
