Côte de Beaune

A key wine-producing district of Burgundy in the east of France.

The Côte de Beaune area is the southern part of the Côte d'Or, the limestone ridge that is home to the great names of Burgundy wine. The Côte de Beaune starts between Nuits-Saint-Georges and Beaune, and extends southwards for about 25 km to the river Dheune. The trend of producing red wines continues from the Côte de Nuits to the north, down through Beaune, although the wines become lighter and more perfumed. Farther south lie the great names of white Burgundy such as Meursault and Chassagne-Montrachet.

Product Details

Savigny-Les-Beaune is an old, typically Burgundian wine-growing village, just north of Beaune. Today, the appellation is divided between the cultivation of Pinot Noir (85%) and Chardonnay (15%).

The terroir of the “Grands Picotins” Climat is heavily influenced by its location. Set at the mouth of the combes of Savigny and Pernand-Vergelesses, the soil is particularly well drained due to the high proportion of rounded pebbles.

Fine nose with scents of red and black fruit (cherry, blackberry...) enhanced by notes of mild spices. The palate is well balanced, fleshy and round with delicate structure. Long, fruity, delectable finish.

Ageing: Oak barrels 100%; Ageing time: 14 to 16 months; Proportion of new barrels: 20% to 30%
