Chandon de Briailles, Savigny Beaune Lavieres Size:12x750ml with a mineral element adding

with a mineral element adding vivacity

Clearly a stupendous effort but just far too young at this stage

Like the Malconsorts this intensely mineral-driven effort is somewhat less structured than usual though it certainly doesn’t lack for power and punch

with a mouthwatering finish

fleshy and ripe but missing the complexity of its peers

Chandon de Briailles, Savigny Beaune Lavieres Size:12x750ml with a mineral element adding(from a parcel just under Talmettes). Discreet wood and menthol notes frame the very ripe aromas of cassis, violet, earth and spice. There is once again excellent richness, volume and sappy dry extract to the middle weight plus flavors that exude a subtle minerality on the refined and impressively long finish. This is certainly quite ripe but there is good tension and this should amply repay extended cellaring. 92 2025+
