About: Savigny les Beaune lies in a peaceful valley rimmed in hardwood forest. The soil make-up under the rim ranges from crumbly shale to compact clay, and expositions range from north-east to full south, giving incredible diversity within a relatively small zone. Generally, however, Savigny produces some of the most perfumed wines of the Cote d’Or, both red and white.

Vinification in white is traditional, Reds are 100% destemmed and undergo a short maceration in open vats before thermo-regulated fermentation. Wines are then raised in 15% new oak ( 25% for the old-vine Pommard and the Beaune 1er Cru ‘Clos du Roi) for 15 months.

Tasting Notes:  A classic Burgundy Pinot Noir, deep cherry red, light fruit perfectly balanced with savoury notes, graceful, elegant and full of finesse.  Perfect example of Pinot Noir from the Savigny valley.
