2022 LOUIS CHENU SAVIGNY LES BEAUNE 1ER CRU "HAUTS JARRONS"
2022 LOUIS CHENU SAVIGNY LES BEAUNE 1ER CRU "HAUTS JARRONS", BURGUNDY, FRANCE. 100% Pinot Noir.
The Hauts-Jarrons (Jarrons meaning tree branches) are located in the middle of the slope under the Mont Battois hill heading towards Beaune. Their deep and sandy soil is similar to that of the Beaune-Bressandes. Likewise, the wines are more like those from Beaune than Savigny. With a complex nose of plum, violet, earth, pepper, lovely intensity and great mid-palate concentration, this is a real gem that can be enjoyed in youth or aged many years.
About: Louis Chenu is a family domaine based in Savigny-lès-Beaune. Although the domaine as been in operation for five gernations, it is only recently they began bottling estate wines - previously all the fruit was sold to negociant labels. The domaine is managed today by sisters Juliette and Caroline who took over the day-to-day management from their father Louis about 3 years ago. Juliette looks after the commercial side and Caroline the viti/viniculture. The domaine was started by Angel, the ‘grandmother of their grandfather’ around 1915. Today, the sisters, along with their father, have added to the Savigny vines in Les Lavières which were the first of the domaine, such that today they farm 9 hectares, almost all in Savigny.
