An assemblage of five premier crus parcels in Beaune, Potel's 2021 offers a waxy, earthy, wood spice-inflected profile (30% new), still quite backwards and undeveloped aromatically, but more yielding and pliable on the palate. Tannins are in fact quite silky-velvety, providing light grip, while acids are comfortably ripe, present but unobtrusive. I like the elegance on display, the typical Beaune refinement, and the sapid, minerally finish that draws saliva. I'd suggest another 3-4 years in the cellar for more aromatic/flavour development, or hold into the early '30s.
