89-92 BH

Notes:

This manages to be at once quite ripe yet cool and airy with its liqueur-like aromas of poached plum, earth and kirsch. The exceptionally rich flavors possess a suave, even lavish, mouthfeel while delivering good if not truly special length on the stony finale. In the context of what is typical for the Pavelot Gravains, this is quite plump if not actually fat and a wine that will drink earlier than it usually does. Burghound 89-92

A powerful purple with a deep black centre. There appears to be a strict intensity to the Gravains. A bit of plum, plenty of dark red berries, some tannins once again, a more compact wine than the Lavières but possibly a point more intense as well. 14% helps to explain this. Drink from 2029-2035. Tasted Dec 2024. Jasper Morris 90-93

The 2023 Savigny-lès-Beaune Aux Gravins ler Cru, 22% whole cluster, is much more reticent on the nose compared to the Les Lavières. The palate is medium-bodied with a pleasant orange rind note infusing the black fruit on the entry. With fine structure and good grip, this feels precise and focused on the finish that has just the right amount of salinity. This is excellent. Neal Martin/Vinous 91-93
