1995 Savigny-Les-Beaune, Joseph Drouhin
Appearance: medium purple red, slightly orange to the rim.
Nose: strawberry and red cherry fruit, but also loads of mushrooms, cheese, some subdued, mellowing oak. Fully developed.
Palate: clear Pinot fruit mellowed out with some savoury and vegetals flavours, medium-high acidity, medium alcohol and quite good length.
Conclusion: well-made, reliable Savigny-Les-Beaune, still a village worth looking at for better value wines. Joseph Drouhin invariably does a good job and is more reliable than many other negociants.
Rating: 17/20
