Domaine Petitot Savigny Les Beaunes Les Pimintiers 2020
Domaine Petitot is the work of husband-and-wife team Natalie and Hervé Petitot. Hervé manages the vineyards and Natalie the cellar, although both are trained oenologists. They believe that a wine is a photograph of the vintage, so all their work is to allow the terroir and the quality of the vintage to come through. Les Pimentiers is a small, east facing vineyard in Savigny-Les-Beaune. The Pinot Noir vines are 60 years-old, grown on red-brown limestone, clay and gravel soils. The wine pours a brilliant light ruby with a scarlet rim. On the nose aromas of strawberry, red currant and fresh earth explode from the glass. There is excellent concentration of ripe red fruits combined with a subtle warming spice, perfectly balanced by a broad acidity and smooth tannins to complement the well-rounded body. The finish is long and complex with lovely depth of flavor. Enjoy with grilled salmon root vegetables, poultry, and mushroom dishes.
