The 2022 Beaune Les Champimonts 1er Cru includes 40% whole bunches and is one of the cuvées that had just been racked. Felettig informed me this was picked after his Premier Crus in the Côte de Nuits. That would explain why it is a little tighter at the moment, though it opens with time, offering brisk, minerally, well-defined red fruit. The medium-bodied palate is quite sapid with good substance and finely honed tannins. It perhaps misses a bit of finesse on the finish, yet there is clearly good backbone that should see it age well in bottle
