2023 Domaine Pierre Guillemot Savigny-les-Beaune Dessus les Gollardes, Cote de Beaune, France GlenAllachie cold settling before fermentation beginsThis rare Savigny white comes from Dessus les Gollardes, where old vines of Pinot Blanc (with a small proportion of Chardonnay) are planted on well drained clay limestone soils.
