Savigny-lès-Beaune Pinot Noir 2010

Grape Variety : Pinot Noir

Soil : Clay and limestone

Site : Area of production located on the commune Savigny les Beaune, a small village adjacent to Beaune.

The Vintage 2010 : After a very cold winter and a demanding spring, the hot summer was regularly interrupted by cold and rainy intervals which early September gave way to a bright and warm weather, that speeded up the maturation of the grapes. Harvest began in the last days of September under a bright sunshine. A very meticulous vinification and a long aging in oak have produced beautiful wines with a crunchy fruit and an outstanding energy. Aging in oak during 14 months

Tasting : Bright ruby colour. Intense aromas of red fruit (red-berry) with a delicate vanilla note. Well-structured and generous. Beautiful crunchy cooked red fruit combination. Delicate oak note and refined tannins. Long aftertaste.

Food pairing : Red and white meat roasted or "en sauce", game, cheeses.
