Those on the top of the hillside are rather sandy, with light and chalky soil, thus giving the Cuvée an always smooth attack. If the finish is always a little more full-bodied on the palate, it is thanks to the heavier and denser clays of the plots on the lower slopes. The result is always a fresh, solid, supple and generous wine that can be enjoyed from its youth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLook to this wine for the greatest density of the three Savigny cuvées. It displays a glowing ruby colour, while there is a toasty note on the nose from the François Frères barrel, which will soon fold into the fruit. There is additional concentration of fruit, which is also in a slightly darker register. A saline touch at the finish from the marl soil in Les Vergelesses. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry\/Region:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTerroirs: \u003c\/strong\u003eLes Vergelesses 0.87 ha, Basses Vergelesses 1.11 ha.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrape Variety:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e100% Pinot Noir\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBottle Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hospices de Beaune","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48055731126433,"sku":"SY-HDB-70-AWS","price":135.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0505\/9153\/1169\/files\/savigny_f1a0d22e-de9f-42fd-bcb1-16f4c0d292f5.jpg?v=1791967640","url":"https:\/\/www.aether-wines.com\/products\/savigny-les-beaune-1er-cru-les-vergelesses-cuvee-forneret-2023","provider":"Aether-wines.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
