Les Teurons is one of the most highly-respected Beaune Premier Cru vineyards. At least a dozen producers make red wines from the Pinot Noir grown here. These are somewhat typical of Beaune, exhibiting good depth and structure, and plentiful earthy, spicy characters.
As a thin-skinned grape variety, Pinot Noir generally has a moderate to high acidity, a low level of phenolic compounds, low to moderate levels of soft tannins and is generally paler in color than most other red wines.
Red wines range from a pale pinkish red through to the darker tones which an interior designer might recognize as Burgundy. Color and body do not necessarily intensify as price and/or quality rises, and even the deepest examples tend to have an appealing translucence and minimal opacity in the wine's core.
