Savigny-Lès-Beaune, Aux Fournaux, Chandon de Briailles - 2022

Provenance: Burgundy
Appellation: Savigny-lès-Beaune
Domain: Chandon de Briailles
Grape variety(ies): Pinot Noir
On-call time: 15 years
Alcohol degree: 13%

This wine is a marvellous introduction to the domaine's style and approach to winemaking, with its floral, peppery nose that only gets fuller with aeration. A full-bodied attack for a dense but silky Savigny, with very ripe tannins that give an impression of false sweetness. The wine is very long and of great dimension. A vintage of substance.

Today, her children, Claude and François de Nicolay, run the estate together. Each with very different backgrounds, they share the same passion: vines and wine. At the helm since 2001, their complementary skills are a major asset. Born in 1967, Claude studied viticulture in Beaune and oenology in Dijon.
