Jean-Marc Pavelot, Savigny Beaune Peuillets Brut Zero briary and warm gravel aromas(because the soil drains so well here the vines can suffer greatly from drought conditions). As it almost always is, this is notably more elegant with attractive notes of violets, red currant and wet stone that also suffuse the supple and moderately earthy middle weight flavors that terminate with a firm, dusty and naturally sweet finish. This is already approachable though will certainly benefit from a few years of cellar time. (88 91) 2015+
