Critics reviews

Neal Martin MW 88-90/100
The 2020 Savigny-lès-Beaune Clos de Village Blanc comes from a genuine clos and contains around 25% Pinot Blanc. It has a bright bouquet with yellow fruit, hints of candle wax coming through with aeration. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, taut and fresh with a saline finish. Palpable energy here, quite persistent, this should age well in bottle.Drink 2023-2028Neil Martin, Vinous.com (Nov 2021)

About this wine

Pinot Noir

Pinot Noir is probably the most frustrating, and at times infuriating, wine grape in the world. However when it is successful, it can produce some of the most sublime wines known to man. This thin-skinned grape which grows in small, tight bunches performs well on well-drained, deepish limestone based subsoils as are found on Burgundy's Côte d'Or. Pinot Noir is more susceptible than other varieties to over cropping - concentration and varietal character disappear rapidly if yields are excessive and yields as little as 25hl/ha are the norm for some climats of the Côte d`Or.
