Jean-Jacques runs the family domaine with his wife Agnès and sons Vincent and François. Over the past fifteen years, he has built the estate up to twenty hectares of vines stretching from Corton in the north to Volnay in the south. Savigny is one of the best value villages in the Côte d’Or, particularly in warm summers when the wines have added weight and richness. This wine is made up from several plots of vines in Savigny which are owned by the Girards where the soil is mostly calcareous clay. Hand and machine harvested.
