2010 Domaine Jean-Marc and Hugues Pavelot Savigny-Les-Beaune 1er Cru Les Narbantons

13% abv

Beautiful floral nose with an explosive palate of lingonberry and blood orange on a powerfully tart finish. Decanted to let it open up. Still a youngster, but currently in early window of approachability. This is an incredibly delicious wine that will surely benefit from another five-plus years of cellaring.

Always wondered why Leroy makes a wine from Les Narbantons, and now I understand why.

Paired scrumptiously with crabmeat and lobster stuffed ravioli.

A memorable red Burgundy... one of the best I've had in a while...
