In white, this named vineyard plot gives a wine broader and riper than the village level, without losing the freshness typical of Savigny.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLes Peuillets lies in the part of Savigny-lès-Beaune that looks towards Beaune, at the bottom of the slope, on sandy and gravelly soils brought by alluvium. These light, well drained soils ripen quite quickly and give supple wines with appealing fruit. With Chardonnay, that translates into more flesh and roundness than at village level, with an acidity that stays frank. It is one of the largest named vineyard plots among the Premiers Crus of the commune.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat the critics say about this cuvée\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe scores below cover the most recent vintages of this cuvée, all vintages combined.

The Moulin Foulot fief, from which it comes, dates back to the 11th century. Bought in 2012 by Olivier Halley, the estate has since expanded its vineyard: 65 hectares spread over around a hundred plots, farmed under certified organic agriculture, which give five Grands Crus, twenty Premiers Crus and a dozen village and regional appellations. The estate sells entirely direct, 100 % of its production comes from its own vines.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e France, Bourgogne, Côte de Beaune\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAppellation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Savigny-Lès-Beaune Premier Cru Les Peuillets Blanc\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEstate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Château de Meursault\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrape variety:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chardonnay 100 %\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVintage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2024\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour:\u003c\/strong\u003e White wine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eViticulture:\u003c\/strong\u003e Certified organic agriculture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVolume:\u003c\/strong\u003e 75 cl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAppearance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Luminous pale gold, with sustained straw reflections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e White peach, pear, hawthorn, sweet almond, a light vanilla background\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Broader than the village level, supple flesh, frank acidity, finish on white fleshed fruit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eServing and cellaring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eServe this Savigny-Lès-Beaune Premier Cru Les Peuillets at 12 to 14 °C.
