Bottled. Rich, sweet with a slightly spicy oak note. Does seem a tad mid-Atlantic … but perhaps I’m being autosuggested? (JR)

The 2018 Savigny-lès-Beaune Les Lavières 1er Cru includes 30% whole bunch and 20% new oak. It has an intense blueberry and blackberry bouquet that needs a little more minerality and terroir expression. The medium-bodied palate displays good balance, delivering crisp tannins and a fine bead of acidity; here the terroir is expressed more clearly. This comes to an attractive peppery finish. Fine.
