SAVIGNY PREMIER CRU LES LAVIÈRES

The vines are located in the town of Savigny-Lès-Beaune, halfway up the slopes. South-South-East orientation.

 The predominantly clay-limestone soils are placed on a subsoil made up of lavières. The Pinot noir used for this cuvée comes from a mass selection planted in 1954.

 Vinification in whole bunches: after vatting in a tapered wooden vat, alcoholic fermentation takes place under the action of indigenous yeasts. The vinification is without input, aiming for a gentle extraction, thanks to pumping over and light punching down.

 Total maceration of 2 to 3 weeks. Aging for 18 months in Burgundy pieces.

 Neither filtered nor fined.
