Louis Latour Description
Savigny-les-Beaune Blanc is an extremely rare wine counting for no more than 3.5% of the total production of the village. The best slopes for Savigny-les-Beaune blanc are to be found 10 minutes drive north of Beaune at the western end of the appellation going towards the tiny village of Boulliand. It is on these upper vineyard sites that the Chardonnay thrives. Some growers compare these higher vineyards and their soil content to those of the famed Corton-Charlemagne.
Tasting Notes: Of a brilliant pale yellow color, our white Savigny-les-Beaune 2019 offers notes of toasted hazelnut and acacia honey. In the mouth it is a full and round wine with vanilla and brioche aromas. Lovely mineral finish.
Food Pairing: Shellfish - fish - charcuterie - goats cheese
Wine Spectator: 90 Points
A fresh, vibrant white, offering lemon cake, citronella, butterscotch, stone and spice flavors. Harmonious and refined, with a long citrus and spice aftertaste.
