Les Narbantons Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru Pinot Noir

So utterly classic. Nose of early season red cherrie, cherry flower, earth, stones and so so floral. A hint of ripe candied cherries but only a skoche. So classic and inviting. This is Burgundy. Juicy and clean. So sappy and pure. Velvet texture, engaging acidity and perfect balance. The balance here is extraordinary. Juicy and so clean. Wow this is so pure. This is just so textbook and transparent. Energy for days and lovely, lacey tannins. Joyful.

Stunning nose. Deep black cherry, sour cherries, that Savigny herbal element and no lack of under ripeness. Nails classic SLB 1er Cru. Violets. Floral. A stunning nose. Maybe a 9.6. Wow. I am blown away. Fruit is deep on the palate with tremendous sap, complexity and that classic Narbantons structure. Perfect balance. So pure. So Savigny. So fresh and so mineral with stunning concentration and sweet cherry fruit. Long finish. I love this. Not quite the Pernand but damn close. Such good acidity and freshness and just wonderful, classic expression of Narbantons.
