Savigny-lès-Beaune

Sitting a little back from the main Côte, the vineyards of Savigny are unnecessarily under the radar. The reds can have juicy red fruit along with a savoury character, and good ageing ability. Occasional exceptional whites but mostly stick with the red wines.

• Vineyards: Dominode, Lavières, Vergelesses
• Producers: Simon Bize, Chandon de Briailles, Pierre Guillemot (white)
