Prune nose. Nice dark color. A micro producer. They have trouble now to get grapes as money flows into Burgundy they loose out. Beautiful wine 🍷 could use another 3 years or so. Cherry 🍒 cranberry touch of lemon 🍋 zest and chalk / really well done / this is ‘handmade’. Blows Bize and Pavelot the apparent benchmarks for Savigny out of the water. Amitié wines online has these or Meritage in Encinitas and a bunch of Michelin Star restaurants in SF. You can’t go wrong if you like his traditional style.

Closed and young at the moment needs to mellow out. Plenty of dark cherry notes and some forest floor. Well done alas burgundy gets expensive:

Took time to open up and better on second day. Light texture, raspberries and strawberries on the nose

Delicious wine. Slightly shy with only minerality initially, but give it some time and it starts to show more balance. Good structure and clarity.

Lovely. Old casks. Herbs and a good frusit. Openes up after a time. Needs decanting.
