Tollot-Beaut is one of Chorey-lès-Beaune's most dependable names, and their Bourgogne Blanc is a lovely example of what a serious village does with its declassified fruit. Fermented in oak barrels rather than tank, this 2021 has more texture and weight than the appellation might suggest — but the oak is a backdrop, not the main event. Citrus, white blossom, and a clean stony edge keep things lively and focused. The 2021 vintage in Burgundy was cool and precise, which suits whites particularly well — you get real freshness and definition rather than anything overblown. This is an ideal weeknight Burgundy: no drama required, just a decent glass and something good to eat alongside it.
