CHÂTEAUNEUF DU PAPE les Trois Sources Domaine de la Vieille Julienne 2020
Shows subdued, hidden power and a gorgeous texture, though this is just beginning to unfurl. Warm earth, brown bread and toasted anise notes infuse a perfumed core of red fruit. Racy acidity keeps the tension high, and there's a licorice snap detail on the finish, which is defined, smoky and long. Grenache, Syrah, Cinsaut, Mourvèdre and Counoise.
SAVIGNY LES BEAUNE 1er Cru Gravains Domaine Henri Germain 2021
(from a .57 ha parcel; Germain noted that there was no frost damage as they pruned it very late). A perfumed and very pretty nose reflects notes of plum, dark currant, violet and a touch of earth. There is excellent energy suffusing the beautifully detailed and lightly stony middleweight flavors that also conclude in a moderately austere, sneaky long and balanced finale. As is usually the case with a typical Gravains, this classically styled effort will need at least a few years of cellaring to unwind.
