1994 Savigny-lès-Beaune Les Lavières

This was a real standout from our tasting at Robert Ampeau. It’s dark and brooding on the nose – with dark muddled fruit mingling with earthy tones, yet with Lavières’s trademark floral aromas still shining through. The palate offers a twist of vibrant red fruit, fine-boned and fresh, with mouthwatering acidity that complements the velvet tannins. Long, with a savoury finish, this is a gorgeous wine.
