Savigny-lès-Beaune Clos des Guettes Premier Cru 2024
Trade Tools
France / Burgundy
This wine comes from a nearly 6.5 acre contiguous parcel on a steep slope facing due South. Pinot Noir is planted to the lower portion in deep iron-infused clay yielding a full and robust wine. Grapes are harvested by hand and immediately brought to the winery in Beaune for destemming and transfer to large open-top oak fermenters. Subsequent fermentation occurs with natural yeasts at controlled temperatures with daily punch down for several weeks, before transfer to barrels for elevage.

2024 vintage
Harvest Note
The 2024 vintage was challenging and ultimately saw severely reduced yields due to excessive rainfall with warm temperatures, leading to poor flowering and uneven fruit set and pressure from downy mildew. Low lying parcels suffered the most. Harvest began on September 13th and the yields, while small, arrived in good condition.
Tasting Note
This is a deeply colored, generously textured and full-bodied red wine which is immediately impressive yet capable of aging. Alcohol is ample yet balanced, tannins are ripe, and acidity provides length.

About the Grape
Pinot Noir
In France, makes a silky, deceptively powerful wine of elegant, complex aromas and subtle, red fruit flavors, with earthy, floral, mushroom and mineral notes. In California, shows ripe, sweet characters.
