A bit more forbidding on the nose than the Beaune Bressandes, conveying a coolness to its aromas of black cherry, shoe polish, licorice and leather; I found myself wanting a bit of oaky sweetness. Then surprisingly rich and savory on the palate, offering good chewy concentration and inner-mouth floral lift and nicely shaped by harmonious acidity. The classiest of these 2016s to this point, this wine boasts excellent mid-palate clarity and energy and finishes with firm backbone and very good persistence.  \u003cstrong\u003eSteve Tanzer 89-91\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 2016 Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru Les Guettes is limited to six barrels this vintage (fortunately, there are 17 in 2017, demonstrating how severely this vineyard was damaged by frost). It has a timid bouquet at first but eventually unfurls to reveal a mixture of red and black fruit—mulberry and crushed strawberry, a light marine influence developing with time. The palate is medium-bodied and underpinned by fine, almost filigree tannin. I appreciate the elegance of this Savigny that survived despite the frost damage, and there is plenty of vivacity and tension on the finish. Excellent.  \u003cstrong\u003eNeal Martin 90-92\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vins Rare","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46037443379439,"sku":"5194","price":46.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0707\/7140\/9135\/files\/pavelot_guettes2020-LBL_9d3674b5-2987-4045-82b1-f70efbcf6c70.png?v=1772599622","url":"https:\/\/vinsrare.com\/products\/2016-pavelot-savigny-les-beaune-1er-guettes","provider":"Vins Rare","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
