The name refers to the journal, an old Burgundian unit of area: three journaux, that is a parcel marked out long ago and worked separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLes Trois Journaux is an identified parcel inside the Grèves named vineyard plot, halfway up the Beaune hillside. As across all of Les Grèves, the soil is gravelly and very free draining, but this sector gives a wine distinctly more concentrated than the average of the plot, with more depth and a denser weave. Vinified and aged separately, the cuvée pushes the style of Les Grèves towards longer cellaring, without sacrificing the roundness of texture that is its signature.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat critics say about this cuvée\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe scores below cover the most recent vintages of the cuvée, all vintages taken together.

The Moulin Foulot fief, from which it stems, goes back to the 11th century. Bought in 2012 by Olivier Halley, the estate has since expanded its vineyard: 65 hectares spread over about a hundred plots, farmed under certified organic agriculture, which yield five Grands Crus, twenty Premiers Crus and a dozen village and regional appellations. The estate sells entirely direct, 100 % of its production comes from its own vines.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e France, Bourgogne, Côte de Beaune\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAppellation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Beaune Premier Cru Grèves Les Trois Journaux\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEstate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Château de Meursault\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrape variety:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pinot Noir 100 %\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVintage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2024\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Red wine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eViticulture:\u003c\/strong\u003e Certified organic agriculture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVolume:\u003c\/strong\u003e 75 cl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAppearance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dense dark garnet, thick legs on the glass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Candied black fruit, blackcurrant, violet, mocha, liquorice wood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Concentrated and deep, velvet tannins, long saline carry on black fruit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eServing and cellaring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eServe this Beaune Premier Cru Grèves Les Trois Journaux at 15 to 17 °C.
