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

There are few more famous wine regions in the world than Burgundy, and this special area has given much to raise the profile of fine French wines around the world. Although most commonly associated with excellent quality red wines made with the Pinot Noir varietal, this region is home to several red and white varietals and produces and impressive range of wines, from still to sparkling, dry to sweet, full bodied and aged, and from to light and drinkable. The region of Burgundy has been producing excellent wines for centuries, with much evidence to suggest that the ancient Gauls were the first to cultivate the native vines which flourish here in the warm summers, and on the excellent soil fed by local rivers. This type of heritage has led to a wine industry highly unique, deeply traditional, and with an exquisite reputation to uphold.

Country: France

France is renowned across the globe for its quality wines and the careful expertise which goes into making them, but what is truly remarkable about this relatively small country is the vast range of wines it produces in such huge amounts each year. Not only are the finest red wines in the world said to come from the beautiful regions of Bordeaux and Burgundy, but elsewhere in the country we find the Champagne region, and areas such as the Rhone Valley and the Loire, whose white wines consistently receive awards and accolades by the plenty. This range is a result of the great variety of climatic conditions and terrain found in France, coupled with generations of wine makers working within single appellations. Their knowledge of specific terroirs and grape varieties has, over time, perfected the production of wines within their region, and the end results continue to impress the world to this day.

Appellation: Cote De Beaune

The historic and utterly enchanting French region of Cote De Beaune has been producing what are widely regarded as many of the world's finest wines for centuries. The wine industry in Cote De Beaune predominantly revolves around the cultivation and processing of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes, which flourish under the hot summer sunshine which typifies the area. Mineral rich soils, sea breezes and centuries of experience and expertise help in growing these characterful grapes and transforming them into something truly remarkable. Cote De Beaune white wines tend to be intense, packed full of fascinating fruit flavors and plenty of mineral character, thanks to the fine features of the terroir being expressed through the juice of the Chardonnay grapes. The red wines, on the other hand, are very good indeed - light, fruity and irresistible.
