What's in the glass: 84 bottles shipped. Lying just under Les Marconnets, Les Peuillets shares a border with Beaune’s Blanche Fleur vineyard. If you’ve ever visited Savigny, you would have passed the vineyard on your left as you enter the valley heading towards the village. The domaine tends a 0.57-hectare parcel of 1971-planted vines. A lot of sand runs through the argilo-calcaire here, which is partly responsible for the wine’s finesse and its seductive core of sweet, red and dark cherry fruit.
“An even fresh red to ruby colour, with additional concentration on the palate, darker fruit, a lovely balance with the acidity. Picked earlier, and beautifully constructed. Nothing meagre here, the Savigny Peuillets fills the mouth with a lot of charm to the final perfume. Drink from 2028-2034.” 90-92 points, Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy
