Maison Champy Savigny Les Beaune 1er Cru Les Vergelesses Bio Rouge 2022, 750ml

Country: France

Region: Burgundy

Grape Varietal:  Pinot Noir

Tasting Note: Not the most complex red Burgundy, but it is prototypical, and I love the interplay of red fruit with spicy and savory character on the elegant and velvety medium-bodied palate. Everything fits so neatly, right through the long, moderately dry finish. From two plots with contrasting soils, one heavy clay, the other light sandy soil, both of which are organically cultivated. Drink or hold.

Food Pairing: It will be the ideal partner for a duck breast with blackcurrant sauce, a hazelnut of venison with cranberries, a beef stew with grapes, a quail stuffed with foie gras or a cheese selection.
