“A ripe red berry fruit and menthol-suffused nose merges into rich and relatively full-bodied flavors that also possess excellent depth and a moderately robust character as the tannins are firm without being aggressive, all wrapped in a noticeably warm finish even when the appropriate serving temperature is properly maintained. I like the depth and size but the warmth is enough where it compromises the overall sense of balance just enough to prevent the Savoy from ascending to the next level.”
