Domaine Jean-Marc & Hugues Savigny-Les-Beaune Aux Guettes Premier Cru

Airy, cool, and fine-boned — red cherry, dark cherry, violet, and a lacy mineral finish that cuts clean and lingers with quiet authority. Where La Dominode leads with power, Aux Guettes leads with precision — a higher-elevation, limestone-and-gravel site on the upper slope of Savigny-lès-Beaune that trades density for tension, and always wins on elegance. Organically farmed, native yeast, 12 months in barrel, whole cluster in the mix. The restraint here is deliberate — and the finish rewards patience. Cellar 3–5 years or open it now with something simple and let the wine do the talking.
