Wine Advocate: 93+ Points
Aromas of sweet red berries cherries rose petals licorice and spices introduce Guillemot's emblematic 2022 Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru Aux Serpentières a medium to full-bodied supple and seamless wine that's fleshy concentrated and vibrant with a layered complete profile and a long bright finish. It's a lovely wine that will offer a broad drinking window. The irrepressible Vincent Guillemot had every reason to smile as he showed me his family's 2022 portfolio a range of wines characterized by purity and generosity of fruit. As readers will remember this seven-hectare estate is rather classical the reds fermenting in wooden tanks with temperature control followed by élevage with modest percentages of new wood. Whole clusters increasingly play a role here. The wines are remarkably consistent surpassing expectations in challenging years and fully delivering in more propitious vintages. Published: Jan 18 2024
