Beautiful intense red colour. Harmonious and caressing nose of red fruits with a touch of spices. A real finesse in the mouth, almost delicate. Very nice potential.
Coq au vin, country-style farmer salad, slow-cooked lamb leg.
Italian doctor Augustino Mazzoli was captivated by Beaune’s beauty, so he elected to live there, and became one of the Hôtel-Dieu’s frst doctors, dying in 1505. One of his descendants was Jéhan de Massol, a magistrate whose name was gallicized. On his death in 1669, he bequeathed his art collection, which saved the Hospices from ruin.
