2006 Seguin Manuel Savigny-lès-Beaune Les Lavières

By on November 30, 2008 #asides

Medium, medium-plus colour. Deep red and black-skinned cherries under faint wood spice, the last drops provide a lovely reccurrant note. Lithe, lovely acidity, ripe fruit and good good mid-palate flavour. The tannin is relatively background. Not the density of a Bouchard Père or Tollot-Beaut Lavières, but this is a lovely middle-weight.

From Les Combes which is near Vigne au Saint. The nose starts slightly reduced but swirling brings

ever-fresher notes. Mouthfilling, with plenty of slightly grainy tannin. The fruit is pure and flows on

through the finish. Good balance here

2006 Seguin Manuel Bourgogne Chardonnay

By on June 30, 2008 #asides

Only grapes from the Côte de Beaune, a mix of Hautes Côtes and from the village of Meursault. A forward and

fresh nose of faint brioche and attractive fruit. The palate is fresh and smooth and has a nice extra push

of flavour in the mid-palate. A very good generic.

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.

2006 Seguin Manuel Meursault Vieilles Vignes

By on June 30, 2008 #asides

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.

A forward, slightly estery nose. Silky and slightly fat with a dense mineral expression – almost oily. Concentrated and lingers in an impressively complex way.

2006 Seguin Manuel Bourgogne Pinot Noir

By on June 30, 2008 #asides

From several plots dotted around the Hautes-Côtes, Chorey and Savigny. The nose majors on a wide expanse of

strawberry fruit. In the mouth it’s soft, tasty and also shares the strawberry impression. Far from

‘simple’, there’s decent tannin behind and a good length. Very successful.

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.
