offering the ritual and refreshment of proper fizz without the after‑effects

Savigny-lès-Beaune 'Les Bas Liards', Pierre Meurgey, 2018 Carignan silky tannins and a mineralA wine built for drinking now, Meurgey's 'Les Bas Liards' has good ripe fruit flavours with cherry dominant with some light spice notes behind. There is a faint whiff of vanilla from the cask maturation but everything is well integrated, and this is very much a wine for current drinking with some good hearty meat dishes. This wonderful wine is made from 40 year old vines in this small vineyard close to the centre of the village of Savigny Ls Beaune.
