Savigny-lès-Beaune Premier Cru 'Champ Chevrey' Monopole, Domaine Tollot-Beaut 2024

Tollot-Beaut are one of the most reliable names in the Côte de Beaune, and Champ Chevrey is their calling card: a monopole premier cru in Savigny-lès-Beaune that they have farmed for generations. Savigny sits in its own lateral valley running west off the main Côte, and Champ Chevrey is on the cooler, north-facing Pernand side, which gives the wine a naturally tighter, more mineral character than the sunnier Marconnets or Lavières plots. The 2024 vintage brought freshness and precision across Burgundy, and this wine wears both qualities well: red-fruited, earthy, and lively, with silky tannins that need just a little time to knit together. "Earthier on the nose, beautifully perfumed on the palate. Elegant and fine-boned, with raspberry fruit and a tart, juicy cherry finish. Classic, restaurant-ready Burgundy." Ksenia Pashkova, Club Merchandiser We think this is Savigny at its most persuasive - genuinely fine without demanding a classified-growth budget. "As to the style, 2024 is definitely a cooler vintage with good freshness and transparency and it makes me think of our 2010s. I was very impressed by the quality I found here and a number of the wines are very much worth your interest." Allen Meadows, Burghound, on Tollot Beaut's 2024 vintage
