Pale ruby hue with evidence of garnet. Subtle haziness. Lots of red fruit on the nose - cherry pie, ripe strawberries, cranberries, raspberries, and vanilla, leather, mushroom, dried rose, and cherry blossoms. Refreshingly tart on the palate. Lovely wine. Upon further reflection, perhaps not the *ideal* complement to this particular meal (pan-seared pork chop and creamy three-apple salad), but still very nice. Taste, learn, repeat. #savignylesbeaune #burgundywine #pinotlover #pinotnoir #burgundypremiercru #lesserpentières #patrickjavillier #côtedebeaune #côtedor

Jan 9th, 2020Excited about this one. Light-bodied, clear rim, translucent. Alcohol on the nose (13% abv), along with black cherry, earth, lemon, orange. Tannin is medium-minus, acidity is medium-plus. Very pleasing. I do think the acidity is a bit overbalanced.
