Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru Les Lavières 2024
Lower on the slope than Vergelesses, this south-facing site has clay-rich soils that produce wines of depth and dark fruit. Fermented with 40% whole clusters.
Deep garnet in colour, with aromas of cherry, blackberry and forest floor. Darker and more concentrated than Vergelesses, with impressive structure and balance. Patience will be rewarded.
Drink: 2026–2036
Production: 460 bottles + 20 magnums
