Domaine des CROIX Savigny-les-Beaune 1er Cru "Les Peuillets" 2022

Wine Region: Burgundy - France

Grape: Pinot Noir 

Tasting notes:Perfumed and suave, the 2022 Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru Les Peuillets reveals aromas of orange zest, plums, peonies, deep spices and mint. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and seamless, it's a pretty, sensual wine that will offer a broad drinking window. - William Kelley, The Wine Advocate

About the Winery:
David Croix's well-deserved reputation as one of the leading talents among his generation in the Côte de Beaune is founded on hard work in the vineyards, something I regularly witness in the Beaune premiers crus where I have the good fortune to have him as a neighbor. Soils are cultivated mechanically or by animal traction; canopies are hedged late and high or managed by "tressage" without cutting their apical shoots; harvesting privileges full physiological maturity; and in the winery, winemaking is classical, often retaining some stems, followed by élevage in barrels and, for some cuvées, foudres.
