2015 Maurice Écard Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru Narbantons - France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru (5/29/2020)
Recent auction purchase.
Youthful. Plenty of acidity and a strong backbone of structure. Enough fruit to support it as well - fairly bright, but with a very slight roasted note to let you know that it’s a warm vintage. Has a balanced feel to it. Pleasant and fairly easy to drink right now, but I think this will be a fantastic mature Burg - I wish I had more (single bottle lot). A pretty good pairing with KFC! (91 pts.)
This was a pure pleasure to consume during SIP. First time trying this producer - I’ll be on the lookout for more…
