Champ Chevrey is situated due east of Savigny-les-Beaune village – almost at the commune boundary with Chorey-les-Beaune – on the plains between Beaune and Corton.
Fermentation during 10/12 days in open vats with floating caps, daily punching of the cap, control of temperatures < 32°C, pneumatic pressing, 48-houred racking must and then the wine is put in French oak casks, among which 30-35 % are new oak casks. The wines were racked once after the malo-lactic fermentation.
Savigny-Champ-Chevrey is soft, supple, and delicately scented with strawberry aromas and flavors and an underpinning of minerality. Aging in new Burgundian pièce brings subtle notes of vanilla and spice. The wine can mature early and offers excellent near-term drinking.
