SAVIGNY-LÈS-BEAUNE 1er CRU
Les Rouvrettes

Characterized by its rich bouquet, this is a consistent wine with a certain unctuousness on the palate, but also a freshness of taste. Behind its golden color with emerald or pale straw highlights, this wine has a floral, laughing nose. Its bouquet is buttery and brioche-like. Accents of lemon, grapefruit, sometimes mineral. The attack and liveliness contribute to the frankness of a clean, straightforward wine, with a persistent, sometimes spicy, fleshiness.
