The Pavelots have been making wine in Burgundy’s Côte de Beaunefor a couple hundred years, however it wasn’t until the 1980’s when Jean-Marc and his son, Hugues, put the winery on the map. Today, the property covers 13 hectares, mainly in the municipality of Savigny-les-Beaune but also in Beaune and Aloxe-Corton. The wines of Domaine Pavelot have elegant fruit tones but are highly structured.
2021 Vintage Details from Wine Searcher:
“The 2021 Burgundy vintage was largely a mixed bag, which is mostly down to the wild and unpredictable weather that blighted the growing season.
It is likely that the vintage will be very pleasing to Burgundy purists, however, as it was so small, the best examples of what was made are likely to cost an arm and a leg. The reduced supply will likely mean limited availability, so for those with a penchant for cool-climate Burgundy, be ready to both act quick and pay big.”
While all of the above may be true, the wines from Domaine Pavelot always offer exceptional value and outstanding quality!
Coming from 35 year old vines located on the the middle of the very steep, south facing hillside (about 300m), with shallow soil, of a calcareous nature, that is not very fertile and therefore produces very low quantities of very high quality fruit. This vineyard in a great lookout spot! The wine sees 12 months in barrel, 25% of which is new.
