Goedhuis, December 2023
Domaine Simon Bize has a substantial 1.6 hectare holding of this Premier Cru, the last before reaching Pernand Vergelesses. This vineyard is distinguished by the high chalk content of its soil. The nose is perfumed and floral, with a whole-bunch alpine strawberry scent. On the palate, the flavours are darker and give the impression of a firm, tense structure. This seriousness is relaxed by fresh coffee bean and nutmeg spice on the finish. A thoughtful and very well-made wine.

Neal Martin, January 2024, Score: 93-95
The 2022 Savigny-lès-Beaune Les Vergelesses 1er Cru has a complex and perhaps cerebral nose: dark berry fruit, black pepper, green tea and light scents of damp moss/forest floor. This unfurls beautifully in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins framing gorgeous dark berry fruit, a little peppery in style, quintessentially Savigny with a very persistent finish. Everything you want from a Savigny Premier Cru (and more). Drinking Window: 2027-2045.
Region
Savigny-lès-Beaune
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.
