Savigny-les-Beaune has long been Burgundy's quiet value champion—producing wines of genuine depth and complexity from limestone-rich soils, yet commanding a fraction of the prices demanded by neighboring Beaune and Aloxe-Corton. At 15 years old, this 2009 Pavelot 1er Cru Aux Guettes is fully mature, showing the soft, open character that defines the 2009 vintage—a notably warm year that produced riper, rounder wines than cooler vintages. Jean-Marc and Hugues Pavelot farm 13 hectares with traditional methods across Savigny's most celebrated Premier Cru sites. The Aux Guettes parcel, positioned on the north-facing slope, develops wines of surprising structure beneath their forward fruit. This 2009 displays cherry, soft leather, and a whisper of forest floor, with silky tannins that have fully resolved. Ready to drink now in its prime, this wine exemplifies the Pavelot family's philosophy: authentic, terroir-driven Burgundy that rewards those patient enough to seek it beyond the famous names. A magnificent bottle at true value.

Professional Reviews

Burghound

BH 93
"Here the nose is similar but more reserved and offers just a bit more overt minerality that also characterizes the firm, precise and pure flavors that possess so much extract that it confers a textured character to the vibrant and exceptionally persistent finish. This is a focused effort that exhibits controlled power and a lovely sense of underlying tension. Worth a look as this is quite good." -Allen Meadows

Antonio Galloni

AG 91
"Good ruby-red. Restrained aromas of blackberry, licorice and mint. Densely packed and suave but youthfully closed today. Dark fruit flavors are framed and extended by pronounced minerality. Finishes long and firm, with notes of bitter chocolate and crushed stone. Still an infant; today the terroir shines through above the '09 vintage character. There's nothing easy about this serious Savigny wine." -Stephen Tanzer

Burgundy has long been the world's most famous wine region. But, underneath all the prestige, this region can be hard to get to know.

While Burgundy offers many great trophies from top producers in well-known villages like Vosne Romanee and Puligny Montrachet, it also offers excellent values to anyone willing to explore beyond the famous names. Our collection– one of the largest in the U.S. – has plenty of both!

From the very basics of Burgundy's regions and wines to the specific terroirs of individual single vineyards--
everything you need to know about Bourgogne is just a click away!
