Louis Chenu Pere et Filles, 1er Cru Les Beaune Hauts Jarrons Savigny-les-Beaune 2020

93 points Vinous
"The 2020 Savigny-lès-Beaune Hauts-Jarrons 1er Cru comes from a single parcel, just under a hectare in size. It has a well-defined bouquet with mulberry, briary and light loamy aromas. The palate has more density and body than the Aux Clous, very lithe in the mouth, a fine bead of acidity with a silky smooth and quite peristent finish. This is a joyful, just a delicious Savigny-lès-Beaune."

Vinous Reverie Notes
The Hauts-Jarrons (Jarrons meaning tree branches) are located in the middle of the slope under the Mont Battois hill heading towards Beaune. Their deep and sandy soil is similar to that of the Beaune-Bressandes. Likewise, the wines are more like those from Beaune than Savigny. Very full-bodied and tannic, they have good aromas but remain closed when young. They require a few years before reaching fullness and are favorable to a long ageing process.
