Savigny-lès-Beaune Premier Cru 'Les Vergelesses', Jane Eyre, (Magnum) 2023
The 2023 vintage at Jane Eyre Wines continues the tradition of producing refined and expressive wines with hallmark precision. Like 2022, 2023 was shaped by a warm growing season, but with the significant difference of ample rainfall when needed, keeping the soils well-nourished. The reds display lovely perfume, aromatics, and depth—qualities Jane prioritises in her Pinot Noirs—while the whites, after a slower start, have blossomed into vibrant, expressive examples of the vintage. "Aromatic and fruit-driven, this wine offers a nose of sweet strawberries and cassis. The palate is elegant, with balanced freshness, persistent tannins, and a long finish that highlights its finesse." Our note Jane’s use of whole-cluster fermentation increased in 2023, coupled with colder soaks at the start of fermentation. This approach has resulted in wines with richer colours and enhanced complexity. While the vintage is already showing expressive youthful charm, it also holds great potential for aging, making 2023 both approachable and collectible. The wines evolve quickly, offering fresh insights with each tasting.
Terroir Al Límit, Les Manyes 2018
Les Manyes is the single-vineyard crown jewel of Terroir Al Límit, Dominik Huber's quietly revolutionary project in Priorat. Made from old Garnatxa vines on llicorella slate, it is the antithesis of the region's old blockbuster reputation — no extraction, no new oak swagger, just a wine of needle-sharp precision and an almost Burgundian delicacy. The 2018 is a superb vintage for the wine: pale, reserved, and beguilingly shy when first opened, it gradually unfolds into something floral and finely etched, with red fruit framed by a mineral tension that makes you lean in rather than sit back.
