John Gilman - View from the Cellar
"The 2011 Savigny-lès-Beaune “Fourneaux” from Domaine Simon Bize et Fils is another stellar wine in the making, offering up a lovely and very red fruity blend of cherries, blood orange, a touch of currant, stony minerality, woodsmoke, gamebirds and a gentle framing of cedar. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied and very tangy, with superb mid-palate depth, lovely focus and balance, ripe tannins and superb focus on the very long, nascently complex and classy finish. Great juice! 2022-2050+."
