Esprit Leflaive Savigny Les Beaune 1er Cru Jarrons Rouge 2020

concentrated and generously proportioned medium-bodied flavors that are blessed with plenty of dry extract that simultaneously coats the palate and buffers the moderately firm tannic spine

a giant of a wine that smashes your palate with sweet fruit and nearly tears it apart

it has great purity on the nose

tension and good length

the sauvage and a combination of super-fresh red and dark currant scents

It is medium to full-bodied

This somewhat rustic effort is very Corton in basic character and a wine that's going to require patience

sumptuous 1993

There is a velvety and highly seductive character to the wonderfully rich and generous middle weight flavors that also brim with palate coating dry extract before culminating in a seriously long anise-infused finish

with some 35% of the volume in barrique

There is a really lovely sense of underlying tension suffusing the much more mineral-driven middle weight flavors that are not quite as rich but notably more precise on the chiseled and wonderfully refined finish

This is very impressive juice and still holding perfectly and the '85 is easily the best vintage of the decade for Clos de Tart
