Savigny-Lès-Beaune "Les Saucours"

Savigny is a typical old Burgundian wine-producing village just north of Beaune. Today, the Savigny-lès-Beaune appellation is divided between the growing of both Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes (85%). The topography, sometimes well defined as on either side of the Rohin river; contribute not only to the typicity but also the diversity of this wine. The grapes that go into this wine come primarily from the upper part of the slope. The climate "Les Saucours" is located at the south of the village.
