Vignoble des Cabottes Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru Les Lavières 2023

Vignoble des Cabottes Les Lavières 2023 is a Premier Cru Pinot Noir from Savigny-lès-Beaune in Burgundy’s Côte de Beaune. Ripe cherry and darker berries lead into a supple palate with a touch of spice.

Tasting Notes

Aroma

Ripe cherry leads a delicate berry fragrance, with a gentle spice note that becomes clearer as the wine opens in the glass.

Palate

The texture is tender and smooth. The fruit deepens from fresh cherry into a darker, almost preserve-like register, with a hint of dried fruit. Soft spice carries through the finish.

Food Pairing & Serving

Try roast duck, chicken with mushrooms or pork tenderloin. For a meat-free pairing, serve it with a mushroom tart or roast vegetables with thyme. Serve at 17–18°C in a generous Burgundy glass. Pour a small glass first and give it time to open over the meal.

Vineyard & Winemaking

The domaine’s 3.94-hectare holding faces south and has calcareous clay soils. Les Lavières takes its name from the flat stones once used to roof buildings in Burgundy. The 2023 fruit was picked by hand on 8 and 9 September and sorted bunch by bunch. The wine was made with 30% whole clusters and spent 20 months in French oak, 35% new.

Cellaring

Open it now for the cherry and soft spice, or cellar it in cool, stable conditions if you prefer a more developed Pinot Noir.
