Pertuisots lies mid-slope on the Pommard side of the appellation. The domaine farms half a hectare of vines spread across two parcels: Petite Pertuisots, planted in 1971, and Grande Pertuisots, planted in 1987. Both lie on brown clay topsoils similar to Pommard over a bedrock of Jurassic limestone. For the Inside Burgundy enthusiasts, Jasper Morris MW holds a minority shareholding in the vineyard. Fermented with one-third bunches and raised with minimal new oak, the cooler and shallower Pertuisots terroir gives David Croix’s most mineral Beaune 1er Cru this year. This is so good: deep, aromatic and hedonistic. Already delicious, it will age magnificently (as this vineyard always does). This is one of Beaune’s grand cru-quality vineyards; the fact Croix prices this wine on a level with Bressandes tells you all you need to know!  

Domaine des Croix Beaune 1er Cru Pertuisots 2022

Reviews

“The 2022 Beaune 1er Cru Pertuisots is performing especially well this year, unwinding in the glass with aromas of cherries, wild berries and plums mingled with rose petals, sweet spices and burning embers. Medium to full-bodied, deep and seamless, it's layered and complete, with a lively core of fruit and beautifully refined, powdery tannins.”
92-94 points, William Kelley, The Wine Advocate
“The 2022 Beaune Pertuisots 1er Cru, which contains 27% whole bunches, has such a pretty nose with crystalline red fruit that you want to run away and elope with. The palate is medium-bodied with quite succulent tannins that belie the structure of this Beaune. There’s wonderful mineralité towards the finish. It's a beautiful wine, one of David Croix's favorite cuvées.”
93-95 points, Neal Martin, Vinous
“A bright and relatively deep purple. There is a luxurious quality to the fruit here, dark red just before it turns black, ripe cherries, a balanced heart with an attractive structure to finish. This can handle its higher alcohol because of the energy.”
