Benjamin Leroux, Savigny Beaune Rouge Vintage:2015

Benjamin Leroux, Savigny Beaune Rouge Vintage:2015(mostly from Les Fourneaux with declassified 1er Hauts Jarrons as well). There is enough reduction to suppress the underlying fruit though there is very good density to the subtle mineral inflected flavors that deliver excellent length for a villages level wine on the balanced if mildly rustic finish. Very good quality here and the influence of the 1er is evident. Note that I would suggest decanting this if youre going to open a bottle young. 89 2022+

Between the reduction and the gas this firmly structured effort is very hard to read and while it may come together that is not a certainty

This is already approachable though should benefit from 4 to 5 years of cellar time

2% Petit Verdot

velvety and caressing medium weight flavors are almost easy-going and delicate on the delicious and lightly structured finale

Shows impressive delineation and finishes very long and minerally

but in this vintage the tannins are nearly buried by the huge fruit

pure and seductively textured medium-bodied flavors that also brim with palate coating dry extract

some differentiations of this wine’s confectionary essence – emerge

the 2010 The Pinnacle Shiraz has aromas of creme de cassis

plum and eucalyptus flavors

but dont miss a chance to grab some if you can

Dark and deep
