Cask sample. Juicy, fresh, fruity wine that’s uncomplicated. Though the tannins are a little tough on the end. Needs time but is serious in intent. (JR)
The 2020 Savigny-lès-Beaune La Dominode 1er Cru has a precise, tertiary bouquet with blackberry and briary scents, just a touch of dry tobacco. The palate is medium-bodied with crunchy red fruit, hints of bell pepper emanating from the whole bunch, leading to a classically-styled, saline finish. Give this a couple of years in bottle.
