Suggestion from November 05 2025
Wine: 2021 Savigny-lès-Beaune "La Dominode"
Producer: Domaine Bruno Clair
Comment: Not surprisingly, this is aromatically similar to the Jarrons though with more floral influence. There is however notably better mid-palate density to the beautifully textured flavors thanks to the mouthcoating dry extract that also serves to buffer the firm tannic spine shaping the powerful, moderately austere and hugely long finish. I would strongly advise not opening a bottle for at least a decade and this should ultimately repay 12 to 15 years of keeping.
