Savigny les Beaune 1er Cru Rouge Aux Vergelesses

Aux Vergelesses is the flagship cuvée, located right on the corner where the slope turns toward Pernand-Vergelesses facing east by south. The base of the vineyard is sandy marl but as you go up the slope there is iron-rich oolite. The plot was planted by thirds (1939, 1949, 1954) and is 2.20 hectares of which 1/3 is planted to Chardonnay and 2/3 to Pinot Noir.
