The 2016 Beaune 1er Cru Les Grèves bursts with aromas of spiced plums and dark chocolate. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied but firm and drying, with chewy tannins and some overripe characteristics. This would appear to be a swing and a miss from Chanson this year.

The 2012 Beaune 1er Cru Les Greves comes from two hectares of vine spread over three parcels. The nose is more reserved than the Bressandes, but still nicely defined and focused with sous-bois scents developing with aeration. The palate is well-balanced with crisp, slightly chalky and obdurate tannins, but there is decent fruite here and the structured finish should mellow with bottle age. Drink 2016-2025. Importer: Terlato International and Mentzendorff (UK)

Tasted blind at the Burgundy 2011 horizontal tasting in Beaune. Paler in color that Prieur’s Grèves 1er Cru ‘11, Chanson’s Beaune Grèves has an open, generous and well-defined bouquet, with leafy and gravel scents emerging with time, dried flower’s unfurling later. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly dry tannins, moderate depth and an earthy, masculine finish. This feels a little robust and it does lack persistence, but possess charm. A“trad Burg,” you might say.

Edged with minerality, this structured wine has rich red plum and black cherry fruit, acidity and a definite wood flavor at this stage. It is powerful and concentrated, the wood and fruit tannins important. ——R.V.(9/1/2011)—— 92
