Pavelot Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er cru Aux Gravains 2022

92-94 points Neal Martin (Vinous): "The 2022 Savigny-lès-Beaune Aux Gravins 1er Cru has an altogether different nose to the Les Lavières: more sultry and backward, yet similarly compelling, tobacco leaf and autumn bonfire scents percolating through the red fruit. The medium-bodied palate has a fluid entry, caressing with pliant, saturated tannins and a keen thread of acidity. The very pure finish has the sapidity to beckon you back for more. Lovely. Drink: 2025-2040. (Jan 2024)"

93 points/'Sweet spot/Outstanding,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from a 1.3 ha holding where two-thirds of the vines are more than 70+ years of age). This too is really quite aromatically pretty with its airy if slightly riper and more floral-suffused mix of black raspberry, cherry, poached plum and warm earth that are trimmed in enough oak influence to mention. The super-sleek and almost painfully intense flavors possess fine length on the tautly muscular, firm and austere finish that is like rolling tiny rocks around the mouth. This is first-rate and a wine that should richly reward extended keeping. Drink: 2032+. (Apr 2024)"
