100% Pinot Noir.
Simon Bize Bourgogne Les Perrières comes from vines located at around 450-metres, just below the woods above Savigny. It has a juicy, quite refined bouquet with scents of dark cherries and a little cassis that feels warm and inviting. The palate is medium-bodied with a gentle entry, light and tensile tannins with a short crisp blackberry finish. You would not ask any more of a Bourgogne Rouge.
The domaine Simon Bize has been founded in 1890, and farms 22 hectares of vines in Savigny-les-Beaune's best sites, from perfectly situated lieux-dits to the best premier cru parcels of the appellation. Their house style is whole cluster fermentation for the reds and little to no new oak on both whites and reds. Both the red and the white wines here are absolutely stellar.
