As usual, the 2019 Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru Aux Gravains is one of the more structured of the Domaine's wines out of the gate, though those tannins always resolve rapidly, and this year they're unusually fine. Mingling notes of cherries, plums and cassis with hints of smoked meats and spices, it's medium to full-bodied, layered and lively, with a long, sapid finish.
