Winemaker's comments / GastronomyMaison Louis Jadot produces a red Savigny les Beaune of medium-deep colour.The bouquet is elegant, feminine, with little red fruits aromas and hints ofspices. Supple, nicely tannic, it has a fine structure.

This wine will be perfect with any light dishes, red or white meat. It will beperfect, for example, with a roasted lamb and its new vegetables.

PreservationThis wine will certainly improve up to 8-12 years in good cellaring conditions(humidity and temperature).
