The 2021 Chablis Beauroy 1er Cru has a taut and mineral-driven bouquet, understated at first but opening nicely with aeration. The palate has a smooth texture, slightly viscous and certainly one of the spiciest Beauroy that I have tasted from Tribut in bottle. Quite lively, fanning out nicely towards the finish. This is an excellent Beauroy that should repay maturation in bottle.
A slightly riper and vaguely exotic nose features notes of white peach, passion fruit, honeysuckle, citrus confit and tidal pool character. There is a lovely contrast between the richness of the medium-bodied flavors and the underlying tension, all wrapped in a seductively textured, sappy and lingering finish.
