The Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru Les Peuillets is a lovely glass. The fruit is silky and expressive .. very sexy for the appellation with a lovely floral side (35% whole cluster). It’s very harmonious and delicate – for the vintage, offering all one could wish for in a delightful Savigny-les-Beaune – also very good.
(Drink From 2027) – Very Good (87 – 88p) Tasted 17/06/2016.

In my view it’s ...
