2006 Seguin Manuel Savigny-lès-Beaune Vieilles Vignes

By on June 30, 2008 #asides

From vines averaging over 60 years-old in the flat part of the appellation., but still red. Again from more

than one plot and elevaged in 1-2 year-old barrels. The nose is pure and focused. More forward acidity than

the bourgogne, with good fruit in the mix. Mouth-wateringly long.

From 35 year-old vines. Medium colour. A little mineral, but aromatically tight. Fresh, lithe, plenty of

tannin and a lovely fresh burst of interest in the mid-palate and on.

From 3 small plots that abutt 1er crus. The nose is deeper with darker, musky fruit. Lithe with good acid

balance – the tannins are more forward but are nicely ripe. Good wine that leaves you with a smooth coating

on your teeth.

A high-toned, quite floral nose. It’s ripe though the acidity balances it quite well. There is more power in

the finish and a good length too.

From a single vineyard near the Clos du Cromin whose vines are 30 years old. The nose is almost tripping out

of the glass to meet you. In the mouth it’s a little more understated and shows a subtle but impressive

length.

Sourced from the area of Levrons. A forward and quite dense nose. Silky and showing a clear extra

dimension to the lovely fruit. Excellent length too – this is super.

Burgundy Report

is special because...

Although this site has to support itself, and its author, everything in these pages is eventually free to view. With 350-400 domaine visits and many blind tastings per year, you won’t find that level of coverage and openness elsewhere!

I don’t ‘score‘ but I do actually recommend which wines to buy from which estates – instead of hiding behind an anonymous 94/100 score – does that mean buy or not? We should be told!

The monthly reports for subscribers reverts to ‘free-access’ after a little more than two years, because the whole ethos of Burgundy is sharing – Burgundy Report too – in this case, sharing the passion…
