Laurent Ponsot’s Beaune 1er Cru “Cuvée du Noyer” 2022 is a finely crafted Premier Cru Burgundy sourced from eight distinguished parcels in Beaune. Bottled at 13% alcohol, it presents vibrant aromas of ripe red and black cherries, fresh herbs, and delicate floral tones, layered over earthy, forest floor undertones. On the palate, it is mid-weight and elegantly structured, with lively acidity and fine-grained tannins supporting concentrated fruit and a firm, persistent finish. Made with Ponsot’s signature methods—late harvesting, whole-cluster destemming, and minimal new oak—this wine showcases both purity and depth, and is well-suited for graceful aging over the next decade.
