Pavelot Savigny les Beaune 1er Cru 'Dominode’ 2019

‘I tasted various component parts of this flagship cuvée, but here is the note on the blend, which as so often was greater than the sum of its parts. The combination gave a jaunty lively dense yet fresh red fruit, with a touch of spice seasoning the intensity of the fruit, which is supported by a firm, but entirely integrated tannic backdrop.’ 91-93 points, Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy June 2020

‘A perfumed, ripe and cool nose features notes of red currant, black raspberry, violet and a hint of sandalwood. There is very fine mid-palate density with an abundance of sappy dry extract to the velvety and mouth coating flavors that flash good minerality on the powerful, balanced and hugely long finish. This is marvelous but it's also a buy and forget you own it wine. Sweet spot Outstanding’ 92-94 points, Allen Meadow’s Burghound April 2021
