The 2016 Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru Les Peuillets consists of just two and a half barrels this year due to the frost. Here, I detected just a slight note of volatile acidity on the nose. The palate is more controlled and focused, quite soft in texture with smudged black fruit, but the finish was missing the structure and tension of the excellent 2015 that I tasted last year.
