Note di degustazione
(tasted from tank; includes fruit from the premier cru Les Hauts Jarrons): Very pure, lively scents of raspberry and flowers. Sweeter and sappier than the Bourgogne; a delicious spicy, floral fruit bomb with surprising mid-palate depth. Finishes with a fine dusting of tannins. Benjamin Leroux told me that he likes this wine best among his village Côte de Beaune 2016s from frosted vines.

The 2016 Savigny-lès-Beaune Village was affected by frost and was reduced to six barrels instead of the usual 30 to 35. The premier cru Aux Jarrons was reduced from 12 to three barrels and therefore the two were blended together to make this single Savigny cuvée. It has a well-defined, black cherry and raspberry preserve-scented bouquet tinged with sous bois and undergrowth scents. The palate is very well balanced with fine tannin, perfectly judged acidity, bright red and blue fruit with great precision toward the finish. Superb. Forget the modest status indicated on the label because there is a serious wine here.
Important cuvée for Ben Leroux. Blend contains one-third premier cru. In tank, ready to be bottled in December. Very bright and lively. Lots of chew. (JR)
