Domaine Chandon de Briailles
Les Lavières Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru Pinot Noir
Savigny-lès-Beaune, Côte de Beaune, Burgundy, France
A bit acidic for my taste…it opened up a bit but still disappointed in the end. I would give this one some time to reach that next level.

Mar 24th, 2022This is the version without sulfur. Opened with about 2 hours of air and the funk blew off, not that there was that much to begin with. By 2.5-3hr there was a lot more mint and leather in it, less abrasive on the palette. Nose of tangy rhubarb tart, mossy log, lil mint. Integrated acidity and tannin, not that fruity. Palette had a hint of pacific cooler, Gatorade frost into the best piece of chalk you’ve ever eaten. Long finish with vanilla bean ice cream and fresh red berries
