The 2020 Savagnin Antide, a cuvée named after Ganevat's son, reveals itself as the best Savagnin from 2020. It's stunning and a big jump from the quality of the négoce wines. This was made with estate grapes from vines in...

This red features an alluring mix of strawberry and cherry fruit combined with tomato leaf, eucalyptus and cast iron. Builds nicely on the palate to the long, complex finish. Dry, dusty tannins linger, along with fruity...

(90-92 points) The 2020 Beaune Montreveneaux 1er Cru is composed and focused, the oak neatly integrated here (20%), touches of undergrowth coming through. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, crisp acidity...
