The 2015 Beaune 1er Cru Les Theurons was more closed than its Beaune "siblings" and only reluctantly offered scents of undergrowth-tinged red berry fruit, hints of brown spices emerging with time and suggesting a more complex aromatic profile down the line. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, good weight and more sappiness than the Beaune Greves, if not quite the same degree of detail. Still, this is a commendable 2015 that perhaps just needs to step up its game once in bottle.
