Benjamin Leroux, Savigny-Les-Beaune, 2022

Benjamin Leroux’s Savigny-les-Beaune 2022 is a beautifully poised expression of Burgundy Pinot Noir, combining finesse, freshness, and quiet complexity. Sourced from selected parcels in the commune, it captures the lighter, more elegant style that has made Savigny-les-Beaune such a beloved source of refined red Burgundy.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, the wine shows a bright, pale ruby color that immediately signals delicacy and lift. The nose opens with fresh red berries and floral notes, followed by hints of violets, undergrowth, and damp autumn leaves. On the palate, it is juicy and silky, with precise acidity and well-integrated tannins framing flavors of red summer berries, tart cherries, and unripe plum. Subtle earthy nuances of wet soil, rose garden, and fresh forest mushrooms add depth and a distinctly Burgundian character. This is a graceful wine with the structure to age for several years, gaining more savory complexity and softer texture over time.

Production
This Savigny-les-Beaune is crafted from carefully selected vineyard parcels within the village, reflecting the limestone- and clay-driven terroir that helps give the wines of this appellation their trademark elegance and freshness. The fruit is harvested with precision to preserve purity and balance, and the vinification is carried out with a light touch to maintain the wine’s supple texture, bright fruit, and fine aromatic detail.

Food & Serving
Ideal with lighter meat dishes, such as roast chicken, duck breast, or veal, as well as vegetable-based dishes featuring mushrooms, root vegetables, or herbs. It also works well with mild cheeses and can be enjoyed as an aperitif with simple snacks. Serve slightly cool, around 15–17°C, and consider a brief decant of 20–30 minutes if opening the wine young.
