Tasting notes
Deep healthy crimson. Mossy, autumnal nose. Medium intensity but lovely pure fruit flavours. Very finely etched character. Sweet and juicy with ripe tannins at the end. Relatively gentle overlay though stern underneath. (JR)

The 1999 Savigny-Les-Beaune La Dominode offers a profound nose of blackberries and spices. This medium-bodied wine is crammed with dark fruits, hints of licorice, and flavors reminiscent of freshly laid asphalt. It is powerful, foursquare, austere, yet has a long, ripe tannin-filled finish. Anticipated maturity: 2004-2010. Importer: Vineyard Brands, Birmingham, AL; tel. (205) 980-8802.
