2022 Pavelot Savigny-les-Beaune BLANC

The 2022 Domaine Pavelot Savigny-lès-Beaune Blanc is a beautifully crafted white Burgundy from one of the benchmark estates of Savigny-lès-Beaune. Produced from a blend of mature vineyard parcels including the sandy-soiled Les Planchots and the limestone-rich Les Vermots, the wine combines richness, freshness and minerality in a style that perfectly captures the character of the appellation. The outstanding 2022 vintage has delivered a Chardonnay of impressive depth while retaining elegance and precision.

The nose reveals grapefruit, white peach and citrus blossom alongside hints of dried honey, almond and subtle oak spice. The palate is textured and expressive, with layers of orchard fruit and citrus supported by bright acidity and a fine mineral backbone. Generous yet focused, it finishes long, fresh and beautifully balanced.

Ben’s Recommendation:
A superb village-level white Burgundy that offers exceptional value and authenticity. Its combination of freshness and texture makes it a perfect match for roast chicken, grilled fish, scallops, creamy pasta dishes and soft-ripened cheeses. Enjoy now or cellar through 2030 as it develops additional complexity and richness.
