Nicolas Potel is an iconic producer in Burgundy. He grew up in a family dedicated entirely to wine; and after gaining some experience internationally, he started his own project in the late 90's.

Les Toussaints (All Saints) is a Beaune Premier Cru vineyard in Burgundy. It produces red wine from the Pinot Noir grape variety.

The 6.42 hectare (15.86 acre) plot sits just to the noth of Beaune Village itself. The site benefits from slightly increased altitude and steep, limestone rich slopes.

Compared to the Premier Crus in the north of the village, the wines from the central area tend to have some extra richness and roundness. Les Toussaints sits at the northern edge of this central group, to the north of Les Grèves.

Pair this wine with mild cheeses, chicken or rabbit in a creamy mustard sauce or mushroom risotto.

Beaune makes a more open-knit, broader and generous style of Burgundy, very evident here. The quite intense nose shows ripe bright sour cherry, licorice, spice and hay/dried herbs. It is medium bodied, warm, sour-edged and quite powerful with fine tannin. The length is excellent to outstanding. Best now to 2030. Tasted January 2023.
