This is what Burgundy tastes like when a family has been making wine in the same cellar since 1926 and nobody's trying to impress anyone.
Jean-Marc Naudin's red Savigny comes from vines planted on the hillsides just north of Beaune - the kind of quiet, workmanlike village that produces wines sommeliers hoard but never talk about. The Naudin family ferments with indigenous yeasts, ages in old oak, and bottles when the wine is ready, not when the calendar says so.
What you get is Pinot Noir that actually tastes like something: red cherry, wild strawberry, wet earth, a hint of smoke from the stems they leave in during fermentation. There's structure here - it's wrapped in silk, not sandpaper. The kind of wine that makes you want to eat something: roasted chicken, mushroom risotto, a hunk of Comté that's been sitting on the counter too long.
This is Burgundy for people who want to drink Burgundy, not collect it. Pair it with anything you'd braise, roast, or smother in butter.
Or just drink it on a Tuesday because you're tired of pretending California Pinot is the same thing.
