The 2000 Beaune 1er Cru Les Grèves Vigne de l'Enfant Jesus from Bouchard Père & Fils is quite successful in this vintage, offering up a brooding bouquet of wood smoke, grilled venison, espresso roast, dried currant and berry fruit—marked but not dominated by toasty new oak. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, supple and silky, with good depth and concentration for the year and just a touch of grippy tannin clamping down on the finish.
