Domaine du Puy de l'Ours - Les Lavières - Savigny Lès Beaune 1er Cru - Red 2023
Domaine du Puy de l'Ours is located in Savigny-lès-Beaune, on the Côte de Beaune in Burgundy . It was founded in 2021 by Jean Orsoni and Juliette Puyperoux following the takeover of 5 hectares of family vineyards, spread between Savigny-lès-Beaune and the Côte de Beaune, including some Premier Cru plots. The estate is converting to organic farming and the winemaking is minimally interventionist.
The Premier Cru Les Lavières is made from Pinot Noir planted in the 1970s on limestone soil with lava (flat stones). Vinification is carried out in whole bunches in vats. The wine is aged for 12 to 18 months in 228-litre oak barrels , with a maximum of 15% new wood.
Grape variety: 100% Pinot Noir
"A distinguished and vibrant Premier Cru! The balance between freshness, structure and minerality evokes an assertive Burgundian classicism... but with the energy of life."
