Drinking NowArmit Recommends

Pure nose with dense, plush red fruit. Refined and classy with nice juiciness and pleasant tannic structure. Very good Savigny.

"Aromas of pear, freshly baked bread, nutmeg and light reduction introduce the 2021 Savigny-lès-Beaune Blanc, a medium-bodied, fleshy and satiny wine underpinned by tangy acids and exhibiting a vibrant but textural profile." William Kelley, Wine Advocate

"Dried apricots, honeycomb, dried flowers and a hint of spices on the nose. The palate is juicy and polished, with a medium to full body and balanced acidity. Fresh and easy to drink. Drink or hold." 92, James Suckling

"Based on the 2019 vintage and disgorged in January 2023 with four grams per liter dosage, Geoffroy's emblematic NV Brut Expression bursts with aromas of peach, white flowers, buttery pastry, verbena and beeswax.

"Subtle aromas of citrus fruit, pear, lemon curd and chalk. Fresh and crisp on the medium-bodied palate, with mineral notes and fine bubbles. Clean and balanced with a lot of freshness and vibrancy. Delicate, creamy aftertaste. Drink now." 92, James Suckling "The entry-level bottling from the estate’s home village of Cuis is always Didier Gimonnet’s priority, despite the house having...

"The 2021 Cumières Rouge Côteaux Champenois Madelonne is bright, punchy and intensely savory. Bright red-tinged fruit, sage, mint, cedar and dried herbs lend notable savory intensity to this Cumières Rouge. Silky and persistent, the 2021 is all class. Drink this young for its primary fruit." 91, Antonio Galloni, Vinous

"The 2018 Cumières Rouge Moulin à Vent is another terrific wine from Jean-Baptiste Geoffroy. Brisk and salivating, the 2018 captures all the savory intensity of Cumières. Dried herbs, menthol, red cherry/plum fruit, spice, tobacco and cedar all run through this sinewy, taut, red wine that saw 18 months in 600L barrels and 30 months in stainless. This is a beautifully...
