2021 Savigny-lès-Beaune, Benjamin Leroux, Burgundy

Description

Benjamin Leroux’s Savigny-lès-Beaune blend is from Conardises and Fourneaux as usual; however, this year, no whole bunches were used, as there was too much fruit variation from the latter. The vineyards didn’t see too much frost damage, so yields were only down 15%. As in previous years, the wine was aged in 600l foudres. The wine behaved well in élevage, with a quick malolactic fermentation. This is a beautiful wine with good consistency and length.

Pale crimson. Light and transparent. Firm and structured. For the future.

Also quite a pale colour. The bouquet is a little more pronounced in fresh raspberry fruit, pleasing rather than massive. Very stylish, with a good fruit acid balance. A fine and balanced Savigny without rusticity.
