French Red
Black cherry, sweet dark berry, woodsmoke, currant leaf, dark soil and dark chocolate appear together. The wine is deep and full-bodied, with a core of black fruit, ripe firm tannins, tangy acidity, focus and grip. The finish has length, vibrancy and balance. This dry village red is made entirely from Pinot Noir, and production for the vintage totalled 15,000 bottles.
Seguin-Manuel 2015 Savigny-lès-Beaune Vieilles Vignes
French Red
Deep ruby colour accompanies ripe red fruit, blackcurrant and liquorice. The wine combines aromatic purity with silky, rounded tannins and a generous texture. Fruit from three Savigny-lès-Beaune parcels more than fifty years old is harvested by hand, fermented in wooden vats for sixteen days and matured in oak barrels for twelve months. Pinot Noir provides the sole grape variety.
Henri de Villamont 2023 Savigny-lès-Beaune Le Village Blanc
French White
Straw-yellow colour with golden tints accompanies white flowers, pear and peach. Citrus and mineral notes appear with white peach, crunchy apple and honey. The Chardonnay is structured and fresh, with a long finish. Fruit comes from a young domaine monopole parcel. The unsulphured harvest receives its first sulphur addition after malolactic conversion, and the wine rests eleven months in oak barrels.

Boudier 2018 Savigny-Les-Beaunes
French Red
Medium ruby in colour, with delicate floral aromas opening into rose petal, red cherry, raspberry and soft spice. The palate is light on its feet, shaped by fresh acidity and fine tannins rather than weight. A poised, fragrant Pinot Noir with a clean, savoury finish and understated Burgundian character.
