The Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru "Les Fourneaux" from Domaine Simon Bize is a red wine produced from grapes from a 0.4 hectare plot of vines located in the "Les Fourneaux" climate. This climate is located to the west of the appellation, on clay-limestone and marly soil.
The grapes are vinified in open wooden vats, with cold pre-fermentation maceration. The wine is aged for around 18 months in French oak barrels, around 50% of which are new.
Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru “Les Fourneaux” is an elegant and refined wine, with aromas of red and black fruits, flowers, spices and subtle woody notes. On the palate, the wine is structured and balanced, with fine tannins and lively acidity. The wine can be enjoyed in its youth, but it also has significant aging potential of up to 10 to 15 years in good storage conditions.
The history of the Domaine began in 1880 in Savigny-les-Beaune. Since that date, generations have succeeded one another, each contributing their work and knowledge to the development of the Domaine. Domaine Simon Bize et Fils is located in Savigny-les-Beaune in Burgundy. The history of the estate began in 1880 with Simon Bize, who launched into viticulture with a few acres of vines in the middle of the phylloxera crisis. The Simon Bize estate then passed to his son, also called Simon, in 1918, who increased its surface area, then to the latter's son (again a Simon), in 1950. Until then, the estate's wines did not were not marketed directly but entrusted to trading. From 1950, the estate began to take off by building up a portfolio of private customers, wine merchants and restaurateurs. It is Patrick Bize, reference to Savigny, who has defended since his installation in 1972 a classic vision of Burgundy, far from fashion and style effects. Her sister Marielle Grivot took up the torch after her sudden death in 2013.
