Vinous
"Tender and delicate, fine and fragrant, a perfect representative of the appellation".
"The Savigny-lès-Beaune Vieilles Vignes 2022, bottled in early June 2023, was aged in two vats. The nose offers aromas of black cherry, blackcurrant and iodine, with a trace of seaweed in the background. The palate is medium-bodied, with notes of red fruit, well-balanced and a harmonious, seductive finish. A real delight, to be kept for 12 months in the bottle". (Vinous 2023)

About the wine:
The Savigny-lès-Beaune Vieilles Vignes 2022, bottled in early June 2023, was aged in two vats. The nose offers aromas of black cherry, cassis and iodine, with a trace of seaweed in the background. The palate is medium-bodied, with notes of red fruit, well-balanced and a harmonious, seductive finish. A true delight, to be cellared for 12 months.
