B357 CHANTEREVES SAVIGNY LES BEAUNE ROUGE DESSUS DE MONTSCHENEVOY 2022 750ml
Just like the Chorey-lès-Beaune, the Savigny-lès-Beaune is quite fleshy. It has a silky smoothness, rich in umami, and can be enjoyed already. It contrasts with the feather-like elegance of 2021. For customers who have supported Chanterêves from the beginning, there are surprises with each vintage, and every vintage is beloved and hard to compare, but 2022 also carries both a sense of reassurance and unexpectedness, and looking back in the future, it will likely be recognized as one of the landmark vintages.
“Dessus de Montchenevoy” is located above the renowned Savigny 1er Cru Aux Guettes, isolated from neighboring vineyards and surrounded by forest, at 350 meters’ altitude on a west-facing slope. This location is doubly ideal with the effects of global warming: the cool air from the forest coupled with the high altitude result in slow ripening. As a result, the long hang time enables the sugar ripeness to synchronize with that of the physiologic ripeness. Mélange of red and dark fruit. Palate: ample, well structured. Dense with aromatic complexity. Lingering finish. (by Chanterêves)
