Savigny-lès-Beaune Wines

Sort By:

Bouchard Pere & Fils 2005 Les Lavières Premier Cru Pinot Noir (Savigny-lès-Beaune)

Price $43

For a Savigny, this is surprisingly firm and tannic, the wine’s structure an impressive edifice of dry tannins and firm cranberry and plum skin flavors. It is certainly ripe, the fruit promising attractive richness in 3–5 years, followed by good aging potential. — R.V. (8/1/2008)

Maurice Ecard 2009 Les Hauts Jarrens Premier Cru Chardonnay (Savigny-lès-Beaune)

With a fine butter-and-mineral texture, this is an ageworthy wine. Its white and citrus fruit flavors offer both richness and acidity, with toast adding a note of spice. Keep for 2–3 years. — R.V. (4/1/2012)

Domaine de la Vougeraie 2006 Les Marconnets Premier Cru Pinot Noir (Savigny-lès-Beaune)

Price $50

If you want a more earthy style of red Burgundy, this is the wine for you. It has a definite funky edge, lying against the ripe tannins and sweet soft, jammy fruit. The acidity comes through to finish a wine with weight and character. — R.V. (10/1/2009)

Chanson Père et Fils 2007 Haut-Marconnets Premier Cru Chardonnay (Savigny-lès-Beaune)

Online Exclusive

Price $55

Crisp and incisive, a wine that shows roundness and softness, finished with bright and fresh acidity. A small amount of Pinot Blanc is in the blend, a legacy of plantings in the 1980s. — R.V. (11/1/2010)

Louis Jadot 2005 La Dominode Premier Cru Pinot Noir (Savigny-lès-Beaune)

Price $37

A gentle wine with open and generous soft berry fruits showing through dusty tannins and lively acidity. This is likely to develop relatively fast into a delicious wine. — R.V. (8/1/2008)

Domaine de la Vougeraie 2005 Les Marconnets Premier Cru Pinot Noir (Savigny-lès-Beaune)

Price $55

Soft and generous, full of perfumed ripe berry fruits, touched with strawberry acidity. The tannins are all part of the softness, like flecks of dust on the wine. It is beautifully pure, ripe and open. — R.V. (8/1/2008)

Pierre André 2009 Clos des Guettottes Pinot Noir (Savigny-lès-Beaune)

Price $42

This walled vineyard has produced a surprisingly tannic, if impressive, wine for a Savigny in this vintage. It has a dark and firm character, the red berry fruits just beginning to break through the firm and dry tannins. It needs 4–5 years’ aging. — R.V. (12/31/2011)

Henri de Villamont 2007 Clos des Guettes Premier Cru Pinot Noir (Savigny-lès-Beaune)

Sweet and ripe, with plenty of tannins, along with a mineral, chalky character that gives texture to the fresh and ripe strawberry fruits. — R.V. (12/31/2010)
