Domaine Camp-Atthalin Savigny-Lès-Beaune 1er Cru "Les Peuillets" red 2023

Be careful, a slight reduction may be noticeable upon opening; decanting will be very beneficial!

Technical sheet written by the domaine:


Appellation: Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru Les Peuillets

Grape Variety: Pinot noir

Terroir: The parcel is located on the hill extending the Beaune 1er Cru appellation. A path separates them.
Clay-limestone soil with a hard limestone subsoil from the Callovian period known as "nacreous slab".
Altitude 250m
South-facing.
Vineyard of fine plants planted in 1964.

Area: 0.3 hectare

Philosophy of the domaine: Our approach to viticulture is to respect the soil, the plants, the people who work there, and those who consume the product of this land. This involves respecting the environment, the terroir, and living beings. To achieve this, we only use inputs certified for organic and biodynamic farming and "small equipment" such as tracked vehicles, which have a low carbon footprint and minimal impact on soil compaction. This philosophy is also reflected in the winemaking process, with a respectful vinification that aims to express the different terroirs while intervening as little as possible during vinification.

Vine Growing: The vine growing is organic and biodynamic. We aim to respect the fauna and flora of each parcel. Therefore, we do not plow; we simply perform light surface scratching to slightly aerate the soil and prevent excessive grass growth. We always maintain a vegetative cover in the rows. We do not want bare soil.

Vinification: The parcels are vinified and aged separately. We produce micro-cuvées of 2500 to 6500 bottles.
Pre-fermentation lasts about 5 days, followed by fermentation with indigenous yeasts.
The use of sulfur is not systematic, with a maximum of 2 grams per hl if used.
Light punching down (1 or 2 in total) and minimal pump-overs (one per day maximum).
Barreling with a portion of new barrels (20 to 25% depending on the cuvées).
Aging for 12 months.
Light filtration on white earth.

The Wine: The commune of Savigny-lès-Beaune is very extensive, with over 500 hectares of vineyards. We find a significant amount of geological variation that gives the wines notable differences, making it interesting to vinify separately.
We want our wines to be the exact expression of the terroir from which they originate. We appreciate expressive, fruity, and rich whites, as well as aromatic reds with good volume on the palate. We decide on the harvest date when we have reached the best aromatic and phenolic maturity.

Tasting: It is an extraordinarily fine, balanced, and long wine.
