2017 Louis Chenu Pere & Filles Aux Clous, Savigny-les-Beaune Premier Cru

The 2017 Louis Chenu Père & Filles Aux Clous from Savigny‑lès‑Beaune Premier Cru is produced by a family-run estate in Burgundy that emphasizes organic viticulture, low yields, and old vines to highlight the unique terroir. It is made from 100% Pinot Noir grown on the “Aux Clous” vineyard, which has south-facing slopes with clay-limestone soils that give structure and elegance to the wine.

The nose offers aromas of cherry, raspberry, subtle black fruit, and hints of forest floor or spice.

On the palate, it is silky and balanced, with refined tannins, earthy minerality, and a long, elegant finish.

Suggested pairings include roast duck with berry sauce, coq au vin, beef bourguignon, sautéed mushrooms, or semi-aged cheeses like Epoisses or Comté. Serve at 15–18 °C to best enjoy its complexity.
