Domaine Arnoux Pere et Fils Beaune ‘En Genet’ Premier Cru 2018

Since many generations, the Domaine Arnoux Pre & Fils is set up in the village of Chorey-ls-Beaune where he perpetuates the Burgundy wine tradition. Created by Ren, his children Michel and Rmi began to expand the Domaine and developed the bottling. In 1990, Pascal joined his uncles and produced his first vintage in 2007. Since that year he is at the head of the winery, supported by his wife Caroline. Pascal combines savoir-faire and new technologies to protect the vineyard and offer wines of great quality.

Today, the Domaine covers more than 20 hectares, divided between the villages of Chorey-ls-Beaune, Savigny-ls-Beaune, Aloxe-Corton, Beaune and Pernand Vergelesses. These climats benefit rich and suitable soils which produced different excellent wine appellations: regionals, villages, Premiers Cru and Grand Cru. All wines are harvested, made and bottled in the winery.

The 2018 “En Genet” has a dark colour and opaque robe; its smoky nose introduces red and black fruits. It charms the palate with complex aromas and smooth tannins. It evolves with time, revealing a solid and absolutely convincing structure. Rich and mature, representative by its smart sides and also its good length dominated by red fruits.

93 Points – Wine Enthusiast The crunchy, fragrant freshness of ripe red cherry immediately sets the scene for this wine. Fruit on the taut, slightly concentrated palate is vibrant with aromatic freshness while fine tannins provide delicious crunch. Vivacious brightness reveals a good structure and lovely purity of fruit, turning this into a most elegant wine.
