Description
What kind of wine it is
Pierre Andre Savigny Les Beaune Rouge is a wine that expresses the authentic character of Pinot Noir as interpreted by Pierre Andre. The deep red colour displays slight violet reflections, introducing an aromatic profile characterised by clear scents of cherry, strawberry and raspberry. On the palate, it reveals a fine and balanced structure, supported by a pleasant acidity that brings freshness and a harmonious finish enriched with hints of vanilla. At the table, it pairs perfectly with delicate meats such as rabbit, spiced poultry, game and soft cheeses.
Where it comes from
The grapes grow in the north-western sector of the Côte de Beaune, in the surroundings of the picturesque village from which the Savigny-lès-Beaune appellation takes its name. This historic area of Burgundy guarantees optimal soil and climate conditions for viticulture. The soils have a specific composition of limestone and clay, an essential element for promoting clear aromatic profiles and a consistent texture on the palate, offering a sip that is fully representative of its place of origin.
How it is produced
Vinification takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature for about three weeks, preceded by a cold pre-fermentation maceration. Techniques such as pumping over and punching down allow for optimal extraction of colour and structure during fermentation. After malolactic fermentation, maturation continues in oak barrels for a period ranging from eight to sixteen months. The measured use of a proportion of new barrels integrates soft toasted notes, defining the final taste balance of the wine.
