Based on the Rue du Faubourg Saint-Nicolas in the heart of Beaune, the domaine holds parcels across a dozen appellations, with a particular concentration of Beaune premier cru sites on the north side of the town's hillside. The vineyards are farmed under a Reasoned Agriculture approach certified HVE Level 4, France's highest environmental certification tier, and every cuvée is bottled under DIAM cork to guard against cork taint.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBeaune Toussaints 1er Cru comes from a 55-are parcel on the north side of Beaune's hillside, on the same clay-limestone soils that define the domaine's premier cru sites. Farmed under the same Reasoned Agriculture and HVE Level 4 certification and bottled under DIAM cork, it follows an extended oak-aging regimen typical of the estate's other premier crus, built for structure and a long life in the cellar.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy You'll Love It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA north-side Beaune premier cru from a producer that has worked this exact hillside since 1850.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePinot Noir at its most structured, with the firm tannins and depth typical of Beaune's premier cru sites.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt on the same clay-limestone terroir that defines the domaine's Cent Vignes and Clos du Roi bottlings.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAn extended barrel-aging regimen typical of the estate's premier crus lends real backbone and aging potential.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHVE Level 4-certified farming, the highest tier of France's environmental certification.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA long aging window rewards patience, though it drinks beautifully with a touch of air today.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow To Serve It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eServe at 61-66°F.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDecant for 30-60 minutes if opening young.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePour into Burgundy stems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePair with grilled red meats, duck breast, coq au vin, or a well-aged, hard cheese.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SommSelect","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47607449649206,"sku":"SOMM2609D-DBB22TOU-750","price":69.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/3628\/8822\/files\/2022DomaineBesancenotBeaune1erCruToussaints.png?v=1788477245","url":"https:\/\/sommselect.com\/products\/2022-domaine-besancenot-beaune-1er-cru-toussaints","provider":"SommSelect","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
