Description
This vineyard is to the west of Savigny, and this monopole parcel is surrounded by a 2.5-metre wall. There is a high limestone content, unusual in the otherwise sandy Savigny. This gives a zippy freshness that pairs neatly with the ripe, white peach fruit, giving a tense, tight and precise finish.

Burgundy is Chardonnay's spiritual home and the best White Burgundies are dry, rich, honeyed wines with marvellous poise, elegance and balance. They are unquestionably the finest dry white wines in the world. Chardonnay plays a crucial role in the Champagne blend, providing structure and finesse, and is the sole grape in Blanc de Blancs.
