Domaine Albert Morot Savigny-Lès-Beaune 1Er Cru La Bataillère Monopole 2023 (750ml) *

Pinot Noir grown in Savigny-les-Beaune, one of the Côte de Beaune villages that reliably delivers red Burgundy with more finesse than weight, here comes from Domaine Albert Morot. This is the 2023 vintage of their premier cru La Bataillère, a monopole (a vineyard held entirely by a single owner), which means every bottle traces to one plot under one hand.

Expect the character this corner of Burgundy is known for: red fruit, a savory edge, and the fine-grained tannins that let village and premier cru wines from Savigny drink well without decades of waiting. A young wine still finding its footing, worth a little time in the glass.
