If you want to understand why people who love Burgundy quietly obsess over Beaune, start here. David Croix — who cut his teeth running the cellars at Camille Giroud before launching his own domaine in 2005 — is one of the most thoughtful young growers in the Côte de Beaune, farming organically since 2008 with low yields and a hands-off cellar (ambient yeasts, used barrels, no fining or filtration). Les Bressandes sits on brown clay and gravel (grèze litée) on vines planted in the 1980s, fully destemmed here for a pure, fruit-forward expression. 2023 was a generous, ripe vintage in Beaune, and this premier cru shows the appellation's friendly, open-knit charm. Drinkable young but built to gain over the next decade — a little air now goes a long way.
