Domaine Pierre Guillemot Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru Narbantons

Opened but did not need to decant. Paired nicely with broiled salmon, wild rice and mixed salad. Floral nose of strawberry blossoms, mint, forest floor, and cedar. The palate is medium, round, and crunchy, bringing fresh strawberry jam, blueberry compote, orange peel, wood smoke, and star anise into a sweet finish. Definitely on the jammy side reflecting the vintage style. Drink 2024-2030. Technical score: 91. Enjoyment score: 93.

Tasted over 2 hrs -med dark red -a bit jammy cassis plum spice black raspberry -med- acidity, med- weight ripe cassis plum and some minerality on the finish along with med/med- tannins -ripe without surmaturité and unstructured but not heavy, atypical for Guillemot but maybe not so much for the vintage, let's see what happens with more years on bottle
