Critics Ratings
‘The Savigny-lès-Beaune Vergelesses Blanc 1er Cru suffered a lot in 2016 due to frost, and the vines reached maximum yield this year. The bouquet is a little reticent, needing more penetration. The palate is rounded with good weight in the mouth, maybe just missing a little bite, especially toward the finish.’ - Neal Martin, Vinous (Jan 2019)
