The Albert Bichot Savigny-les-Beaune 2022 is a wine from the renowned Burgundy region in France. This vintage is known for its expressive and lively character, featuring bright notes of blue and purple fruits like plums and blueberries, along with fresh violets. It's made from 100% Pinot Noir, typical for wines from this area. Savigny-Les-Beaune is an old, typically Burgundian winegrowing village, just north of Beaune. The topography, which can vary markedly on either side of the small Rhoin river, contributes to the typicity as well as the diversity of this cru.
Albert Bichot is a well-established winery with a long history, daing back to 1831. They have a strong reputation for producing high-quality wines and have been a significant buyer at the Hospices De Beaune wine auction for many years.
Fine nose with scents of red and black fruit (raspberry, blackberry...) enhanced by notes of mild spices. The palate opens with lovely volume for this very well-balanced, soft, round wine. Its delicate structure continues and finishes on a subtle note of fruit. Taste this wine with roasted or braised red and white meats, or with medium cheeses.

Warm and broad in expression, this relatively full-bodied wine offers generous red and black fruit, subtle spices, balsam, maple and baked cherries. Light tannins and plenty of fruit flavor make it easy to drink now.
