NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This wine, Simon Bize & Fils Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru 'Aux Vergelesses' Rouge, is a premier cru from the Savigny-lès-Beaune appellation in Burgundy, France.On the nose, it offers an enticing bouquet of red fruits such as cherries and raspberries, accompanied by subtle floral notes and a touch of earthiness. These aromas are characteristic of Pinot Noir, the grape variety used to make this wine. On the palate, the wine showcases a medium body with a silky texture and well-integrated tannins. The flavors mirror the aromas, with bright red fruit flavors taking center stage, supported by hints of spice and a delicate minerality. The acidity is refreshing, adding a lively and balanced character to the wine. The finish is long and elegant, leaving a lingering impression of red fruits and a touch of savory complexity. This wine would pair wonderfully with roasted poultry, grilled salmon, or creamy cheeses. Enjoy it now or cellar it for a few more years to allow further development.
