This is broad and quite soft, with a dense, jammy red-fruit flavor. It has tannins that are buried in the rich fruit, giving shape to the wine. This is likely to mature soon.

A pleasant surprise from an unheralded appellation, this Savigny boasts aromas of beets and cherries but folds in added complexity in the form of leather, toast and bacon fat. Smooth and supple in the mouth, this is ready to drink tonight.

Freshly fruity initially, this wine slowly reveals some tight and firm tannins that go deep into the rich plum and spice flavors. It is structured as well as fleshy, a balanced wine that finishes with bright acidity.

Yes, there is a slight layer of tannin. But for a Nuits-Saint-Georges, this is surprisingly soft and juicy, showing fresh cherry and raspberry flavors. It’s certainly enjoyable, but not for aging.

In a soft-fruited, juicy style, crushed strawberry flavors ride over the light tannins. This is a fresh, medium-weight wine, finished with sweet acidity and a final, clear berry finish.

Fresh citrus and peach juice flavors are light, certainly not concentrated, but the wine has some pear skin spice and toast. It has crispness, poise and balance, with a delicious finale of bright acidity. Imported by Boisset America.

Some pretty red plum aromas are largely obscured by notes of coffee, chocolate and vanilla--in a word, oak. The wine itself is a bit thin and shows some alcoholic warmth, finishing with coffee, mocha and some faint peppery notes.
