Product notes

Savigny, located between 220 and 360 meters, produces red wines (almost 90%) in village and premier cru appellations. The Dominode is a climat whose soil is deep and made up of a wide variety of rocks from the top of the hill.

Production notes

The grapes are carefully sorted by hand and then destemmed. The aging lasts about 18 months in the barrels of our cooperage, of which about a third are new.

Tasting notes
