There is an almost Pommard-like rusticity in the 2002 Beaune Boucherottes. Hints of talcum powder can be found in its otherwise black fruit-dominated nose. Bright, expressive, and crammed with red cherries as well as blackberries, this firm wine appears to have the depth of fruit to outlast its structure. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2013.
