The 2022 Savigny-lès-Beaune Village which sees no new oak is initially quite backward opening with red fruit laced with wild mint and loam. Just very?Savigny. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins and a keen thread of acidity. It is very harmonious and for want of a better what appears to be a "stylish" Savigny in the making. (Drink between 2025 - 2034)
This is also aromatically quite pretty with its spicier and more deeply pitched array of poached plum violet and humus scents. The succulent round and seductively textured middleweight flavors exhibit a subtle minerality on the lightly austere and firm finish where a raspiness slowly emerges. (Drink starting 2028)
