Aromatically the perfect marriage of whole bunch wild strawberry scent and a mass of bright red fruits, with a touch of sloe, from the destalked proportion of the juice. A delicate style, the tannins are incredibly fine, giving a feeling of elegance and the finish gives the impression of thoughtful nuance.

From a mixture of Premier and Village Cru vines, the 2021 Savigny-lès-Beaune Aux Fournaux has quite a floral, fruity nose featuring Morello cherries and crushed strawberries. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins. The whole bunches lend a subtle black pepper note and a bit of flesh around its bones on the finish. Fine. Drink 2024-2033.
This cuvée is made up of two thirds 1er Cru fruit and one third from the village section. Young vines are declassified, the remainder being from a 1956 plantation. 10 hl/ha in 2021 with 50% whole bunch vinification. Glowing purple with some depth. A little bit of blackcurrant. On the palate the core of the fruit wants to be in red berries but with a light chocolatey note and definitely some peppers at the back. Fair length. Drink from 2025-2028.
The picturesque village of Savigny-lès-Beaune, just to the north of Beaune, is a relatively prolific producer in Burgundian terms. Less serious than its neighbours, Pommard and Volnay, these are nonethless delicious wines - perfumed, delicate and elegant. A tiny amount of white is produced.
