Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru Les Narbantons Mongeard-Mugneret (Domaine) 2019

Loyal to his principles, Vincent Mongeard grows the Pinot Noir that makes up this cuvée in a sustainable way. These vines are around 60 years old and they grow at 250 metres of altitude in chalk and marl-rich soil. The grapes are harvested by hand before being carefully sorted and destemmed. The vinification concludes with a maturation in oak casks (30-40% new wood). This Savigny-lès-Beaune premier cru Les Narbotons has an intense colour that gives off powerful notes of red fruit. On the palate, this is a concentrated cuvée marked by a present, tannic structure. You can enjoy this wine up to eight years from its vintage, ten if it’s an especially strong year. In order to appreciate all its finesse, we recommend serving it in large glasses to liberate the subtle notes of Pinot Noir. It can be served with simple dishes including white meat, sautéd vegetables and refined cheese.
