88-91
88-91 ST "(This and the subsequent '06s are Domaine Boillot wines) Apple, spices, charred oak and nut oil on the nose. Juicy and concentrated, if a bit youthfully imploded. This was the first wine I tasted at Boillot's house immediately after we finished the negociant cellar with the Corton-Charlemagne, and this tactile but suave Savigny reminded me of a junior version of that wine. Finishes with a sexy spice character and noteworthy persistence."

Produces the world's most revered Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from a mosaic of tiny, terroir-defined climats. Its hierarchy of village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards makes site the ultimate expression of quality.
The world's most versatile white grape, producing everything from steely Chablis to rich, oaked whites. Its neutrality makes it a mirror of terroir and winemaking, and the foundation of white Burgundy and Champagne.
