The 2020 Savigny-Dominode 1er Cru has a fresh bouquet with fine delineation, leaning more towards the red side of the fruit spectrum, touches of musk filtering through the cranberry and strawberry, a little earthiness with time. The palate is well balanced with pliant tannins, the whole bunch here neatly integrated with a judicious touch of white pepper towards the finish. This works much better than some of Chanson’s other reds and it should age well in bottle. Closure: Diam ... More details

Enough wood to notice sets off the spicier though equally earthy aromas of plum, dark pinot fruit and discreet violet nuances. There is very good energy and better refinement if not the same mid-palate density to the palate coating, balanced and youthfully austere finale. Note that this is sufficiently structured to reward a decade plus of cellaring.

Enticing aromas and flavors of black cherry, black currant and sandalwood highlight this firmly structured red. Ends with lightly chewy tannins and an aftertaste of fruit and spice. Best from 2023 through 2033. 50 cases imported.

If you`re looking for a very concentrated and compact red Burgundy for a moderate price, then this one could be for you. Even in the deeply colored context of 2020, this is almost inky dark, but with a vividly youthful violet rim. Brimming with sour-cherry and forest-berry aromas, it has a dense tannin structure for this supposedly light appellation. Really packs a punch at the bold finish, but also impressive freshness. Drinkable now, but best from 2024.
Winery
Dark ruby color. Intense aromas of blueberries and elderberries. Well-structured and dense. The tannins are quite present and give an idea of the excellent aging capability of this wine. Long finish.

Varietal: Pinot Noir

Pinot Noir translates as 'black pine' in French, and is named as such due to the extremely inky color of the fruits, which hang in bunches the shape of a pine cone. Wineries often struggle with Pinot Noir vines, as more than most red wine grape varietals, they fail in hot temperatures and are rather susceptible to various diseases which can be disastrous when hoping for a late harvest. Thanks to new technologies and methods for avoiding such problems, however, the Pinot Noir grape varietal has spread across the world to almost every major wine producing country. Why? Quite simply because this is considered to be one of the finest grape varietals one can cultivate, due to the fact that it can be used to produce a wide range of excellent wines full of interesting, fresh and fascinating flavors Their thin skins result in a fairly light-bodied wine, and the juices carry beautiful notes of summer fruits, currants and berries, and many, many more.

Region: Burgundy

The beautiful region of Burgundy in France is famously home to some of the most exquisite red wines to be found anywhere on earth, and is most commonly associated with the silky, elegant and flavorful Pinot Noir varietal wines which are commonly produced there. However, the superb and mineral rich soils fed by the Rhone river, and the long hot summers and mild autumns of the region produce a wide variety of fine grapes, and as such, Burgundy produces plenty of different wines which are equally as good as the produce the region is famed for. The region of Burgundy itself has a wine-making history which stretches back at least two thousand years, and as such, it comes as no surprise that the wineries which fill the dozens of controlled appellations of the region rely heavily on traditional methods and techniques when it comes to producing their famous wines.

Country: France

French winemakers are subjected to several laws and regulations regarding the wines they produce, and how they can be labeled and sold. Such procedures are designed to increase the overall quality of the country's produce, and also to ensure that wines made in each particular region or appellation are of a character and type which is representative of the area. Thankfully for consumers of wine world-wide, the French have a particularly high reputation to uphold, and seem to do so flawlessly. Every year, wineries from all over France produce millions upon millions of bottles of fine wine, making the most of their native grape varieties and the excellent terrain which covers most of the country. From the expensive and exquisite red wines of Bordeaux and Burgundy, to the white wines and cremants of central France, the French are dedicated to providing the world with wines of the highest quality and most distinctive character.

Appellation: Cote De Beaune

France's beautiful and highly esteemed sub-region of Cote De Beaune is rightly regarded as the home to many of the world's finest, most complex and fascinating white wines. The white wine industry of Cote De Beaune is based almost solely around the Chardonnay grape, which flourishes especially well in the fine climatic conditions the region receives, and ripens well due to the mineral rich soils which typify the area. Chardonnay is renowned for its ability to express the best points of its terroir, and local winemakers claim that a mixture of traditional techniques and the stunning soils they work with is the secret to their success. There is also a huge red wine industry in Cote De Beaune, which, although not quite as famous as the white wines that leave the region, produces remarkable results from the excellent Pinot Noir grapes which grow there.
