Emmanuel Rouget, Savigny-les-Beaune, 2023
Savigny-les-Beaune from Emmanuel Rouget is one of those bottles that quietly punches above its village-tier appellation. The domaine - run today by Rouget's sons Nicolas and Guillaume, who took the reins in 2011 - traces its style directly back to Henri Jayer, the legendary uncle who took Emmanuel under his wing in 1976. That means low yields, careful destemming, gentle cool pre-ferment maceration, and aging in classic Burgundian barrels. The 2023 from Savigny gives you all the lift and red-fruited charm of the appellation, with the extra refinement that comes from Rouget's painstaking cellar work. A village wine that thinks like a 1er Cru. Drink over the next several years.
