Domaine Michel Mallard et Fils Les Serpentieres, Savigny-les-Beaune Premier Cru, France 2021
The forward, accessible aroma has elements of plum, spice, and smoke. The texture is rich and surprisingly dense for the appellation, with a velvety feel that is very luxurious. On the finish, the tannin becomes evident. While this should drink reasonably early, it is a wine that will improve with cellaring. It is produced from more than a hectare of south-facing vines planted in clay soils with limestone scree from the combe d’Orange. Half of the grapes are fermented as whole clusters, and the wine is ageing now in cask (half new).
