Savigny lès Beaune Dominode Premier Cru

Savigny-lès-Beaune Dominode Premier Cru – Domaine Chanson

This Premier Cru from the heart of the Côte de Beaune is for all those who wish to experience Burgundian Pinot Noir in its most elegant and characterful form. The Dominode vineyard – its name derives from the Latin "Dominus" and refers to the former lord of Savigny – is one of the special single vineyards of the Savigny-lès-Beaune appellation.

The vineyard faces northeast on a moderate slope, which lends the wine a cool precision and structured depth. In the glass, it displays a bright ruby ​​red color. On the nose, aromas of cooked red fruits – ripe strawberries, cherries, raspberries – unfold, interwoven with spicy notes and a delicate hint of vanilla.

On the palate, the Dominode is balanced and firm. The tannins are fine and well-integrated, the texture precise. The finish is long, spicy, and concludes with an elegant fruitiness.
