SAUZET BEUNE PERTUISOTS 2017 skus_30212358 Poached and spiced red cherriesThe 2017 Beaune 1er Cru Les Pertuisots offers up a pretty nose of crisp green orchard fruit, citrus zest, blanched almonds and fresh peach. On the palate, it's medium to full bodied, elegantly textural and incisive, with good depth at the core, racy acids and a delicately chalky finish. This is a classy, beautifully balanced Pertuisots that isn't as rich and sun kissed as some of Sauzet's more dramatic cuves this year.
