2014 Domaine Pierre Guillemot Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru Les Serpentières
Community Tasting Note
Seth Rosenberg Likes this wine:
Tuesday, May 23, 2017 - PnP. The nose is beautiful, fragrant, light and red: roses, a herbal/vegetal/green pepper thing (which works nicely here), red spices, some sweet and perfumed red fruits: wild strawberry and Ranier cherry (yes, they are yellow, I know), there is almost a crystallized-candied element to the fruit at moments which is very pretty. This is bright and red on the palate, entering with sweet fruit and then lots of the savory herbal thing going on, then tart red cherry and berries and more florals. When trilled the fruit shows deeper reserves and a bit more darkness. Very pure and light. All of this moves smoothly into the finish, which is savory, light red, tart, with some minerality showing now. I figured 2014 and Guillemot would be a classic combination and I was not disappointed. Classic Red Burgundy. Nose - 5.5/6, Palate - 5+/6, Finish - 4.5+/6, Je ne Sais Quoi - 1.5/2 = 16.5+/20 (with 17-17.5/20 potential.)
