Maison Patriarche, founded in Beaune in 1780, is one of Burgundy's oldest négociant houses, operating from a 17th-century former convent whose five kilometres of vaulted cellars hold its stock. Savigny-lès-Beaune occupies the Rhoin valley between the Corton hill and the city of Beaune, its two opposing slopes resting on Bathonian limestone with reddish ferruginous clay. The appellation is medium-bodied and discreetly tannic, with characteristic notes of cherry, raspberry, blackcurrant and violet.

The 2017 vintage was harvested early in the Côte de Beaune. Aged approximately ten to twelve months in oak.

Wine Identification
The Savigny-lès-Beaune 2017 is a red wine produced by Maison Patriarche, one of Burgundy’s oldest négociant houses founded in Beaune in 1780. The house operates from the historic Convent of the Visitandines, utilizing five kilometers of vaulted cellars to store and select wines from growers across the region.

Origin and Winemaking
This vintage originates from the Savigny-lès-Beaune appellation in the Côte de Beaune subregion of Burgundy, France. The vineyards are situated in the Rhoin valley between the Corton hill and the city of Beaune. The area features two distinct slopes: the northern slope, facing south, which produces lighter, more aromatic wines, and the southern slope, facing north, which yields more structured expressions. The soils consist of Bathonian limestone and reddish ferruginous clay.

The wine is crafted from Pinot Noir grapes. The 2017 vintage was characterized by an early harvest in the Côte de Beaune. Following fermentation, the wine underwent aging for ten to twelve months in oak barrels.

Tasting Profile
Savigny-lès-Beaune wines are described as having an intermediate character: lighter than Pommard and comparable in weight to Beaune. Expect a profile marked by discrete tannins and aromatic notes of cherry, raspberry, and violet.

Overall Character
This wine represents a classic expression of Savigny-lès-Beaune, balancing aromatic freshness with moderate structure. It offers a refined tasting experience typical of the appellation’s limestone terroir, showcasing the house’s long-standing expertise in sourcing from diverse growers throughout Burgundy.

Learn more about Maison Patriarche

Jean-Baptiste Patriarche founded the house in Beaune in 1780 and shortly afterwards made the purchase that still defines it: the convent of the Visitandines, a seventeenth-century building whose underground galleries he turned into a cellar. Those cellars are still the headquarters and are the largest in Burgundy, holding several million bottles; some of the galleries date from the thirteenth century.

The founder looked for buyers abroad from the outset: he was exporting to Great Britain, the Netherlands and Belgium when that was far from usual. The house then passed through hands that each gave it a push: Léonce Bocquet, around 1850, brought it to the courts of Europe; André Boisseaux, from 1940, made it one of Burgundy's major names; and in 1955 Georges Kritter created Kriter, the sparkling wine brand. Since 2011 it has belonged to Pierre Castel, who has invested in the cellars.

It is worth placing it correctly: Patriarche is a négociant house, not a domaine. Its trade is buying, ageing and bottling wine from Burgundy's appellations rather than farming each parcel itself.
