Mostly derived from a parcel known as La pointe des Tuvilains, Croix's 2021 Beaune Village has turned out nicely, offering up aromas of sweet red berries, plums, blood orange and peonies. Medium to full-bodied, ample and layered, with a fleshy core of fruit, melting tannins and a saline finish. It's an over-performer that will offer delicious drinking on release and for more than a decade after.
