FINE+RARE, Mar 2019
This Savigny Les Beaune comes from a selected set of vine rows from the Aux Fourneaux vineyard, of which half is village appellation and the other half declared Premier Cru. The wine has a lovely redcurrant and wild strawberry fruit profile with an added sappiness typical of Savigny. Beautifully pure scented aromatics and lovely mid-palate concentration. The purity is delightful and makes those hours of hand sorting all worthwhile.
