TASTING NOTE

Savigny-lès-Beaune, to the north of Beaune, is one of the Côte d'Or's largest wine-producing villages. Cold maceration. Natural yeast fermentation and vatting for three weeks. Aged in oak barrels of which 30% are new during 16 months. Nice ruby color. The nose is mainly floral, with black fruit and slightly mineral aromas on an oaky background. The attack is silky, with a fine density. On the palate, it is a middle-body wine, with a nice density and length. Some hints of minerality season the very persistent finish.
