The ruby-colored 1999 Beaune Pertuisots (domaine) has gorgeous, sweet, candied raspberry and cherry aromas. Perfume, talcum powder, and red currants can be found in its light to medium-bodied, zesty personality. Its finish is somewhat firm, yet its fruit will dominate if consumed over the next 4 years.
