JEAN-PIERRE GUYON CHOREY LES BEAUNE “LES BONS ORES”

The 2016 Chorey-ls-Beaune Les Bons Ores is showing superbly from bottle, and if a better example of this appellation was produced this year, I would love to taste it. Bursting from the glass with aromas of wild berries, rose petal and cinnamon, it’s medium to full-bodied, velvety and expansive, with supple, powdery tannins, succulent acids and an ample core of fruit. While Chorey can tend to rusticity, here it is interpreted through a Vosne-Romane lens, and the result is fabulous.
