Domaine Maurice Ecard Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru Aux Serpentières, AOP Savigny-lès-Beaune Premier Cr
The first tertiary notes are making their way to the front, red apple in hand alongside forest floor, wet leaves,and truffle. This is allied to cedar, coconut, coffee but – here’s the best bit – there’s no lack of fruit to balance the wood. Ripe plum, wild strawberry and cooked raspberries make for an impressive and generously charming wine whilst the fine-grained tannins are also worthy of mention. Curious vintage 2019: what will this do next? 2024-2031 – MP

Red apple, candied apple and rhubarb rub shoulders with wet earth, truffle and smoke. This is more restrained than the Aux Serpentières and slightly more evolved. The palate gets a big thumbs up: commanding red fruit keeps everything on the boil, allowing developed, earthy notes just enough access. 2024-2032 – MP
