The fruit still shows plenty of intensity and the tannins have softened

Lengthy and succulent and substantial

Juicy and savory

phenolically mature and driving finish that is quite firm without being aggressive yet impeccably well balanced

Chandon de Briailles, Savigny Beaune Fourneaux other_regions_italy The fruit still shows plenty(from 60+ year old vines; note that this now has the 1er portion declassified into it and the domaine will continue to do this going forward; the 1er portion accounts for about 2 3 of the cuve). An ultra fresh nose features notes of both red and dark currant that enjoy pretty top notes of violet and rose petal plus a touch of earth. There is excellent precision to the super sleek and precise middle weight flavors that terminate in a balanced finale
