Pierre Gruber Savigny Les Beaune 2016 Rouge (750ml)

Country/Region: Burgundy, France

Background: Created in 1964, Maison Pierre GRUBER has been the cornerstone of Domaine Jean-Luc & Paul Aegerter’s Burgundian activities since 1988.

Grapes: 100% Pinot Noir

Tasting note: A dazzling, bright scarlet robe that presages aromas of black fruit (blackcurrant and blackberry), red fruit (cherry and redcurrant), humus and undergrowth. And with age, truffle, leather and spices. Young, this wine offers the palate the crisp charm of fresh grapes. Firm, frank and sappy, it then develops to show itself to be very well structured and generous.

Food Pairing: match wonderfully with big game or with a tender cheese such as Epoisses.
