“All the benefits of oak aging without compromising the very essence of Chardonnay—a real treat!”

This 2023 Savigny-les-Beaunes opens with a clean and rich nose, featuring notes of exotic fruits, apple crumble, and fresh apricot. On the palate, it is full-bodied and aromatic with a delicate freshness, unfolding into a rich array of flavors that culminate in a long finish, rounded out by a subtle, very pleasant hint of saltiness. It pairs perfectly with delicious oysters au gratin or a chicken blanquette!

Rated estate (2021 guide): 2*Stars (A solid, recommendable production, though slightly more consistent and uniform than the previous one)

About the estate:

This small estate comprises 8 hectares of vineyards, spread between Nuits-Saint-Georges and Beaune. Founded in 2009 by Olivier Decelle and Pierre-Jean Villa, it has been managed from the outset by Jean Lupatelli, a talented individual who oversees vineyard management and winemaking with great insight. The estate rounds out its lineup with a few supplemental purchases totaling the equivalent of two hectares, sourced from historic appellations that have been part of the brand since its inception, with grapes harvested by the estate’s own teams. The 2018 reds are soft, charming, and richly fruity and floral, clearly reflecting their origins.

Rated Estate: Award-Winning Wines (This producer's wines regularly receive awards from the guide)

About the estate:

Founded in 2009 by two partners from outside Burgundy —Pierre-Jean Villa (northern Rhône Valley) and Olivier Decelle (Mas Amiel in Roussillon, Jean Faure, Haut-Ballet, and Haut-Maurac in the Bordeaux region), supported by their winemaker Jean Lupatelli—this Nuit-Saint-Georges-based company (wine merchant and estate) has now established a solid foothold in Burgundy.

Rated estate (2022 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or high-quality winemakers producing wines of a high standard—you won’t be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)

About the estate:

Founded in 2009 by two leading figures in the wine world, Olivier Decelle (Mas Amiel in Roussillon and Jean Faure in Saint-Émilion) and Pierre-Jean Villa, a winemaker in the northern Rhône Valley, this estate stopped purchasing grapes in 2017. Previously known as Decelle-Villa, it became Decelle et Fils in 2020. Based in Nuits-Saint-Georges, it relies on organically farmed vineyards it owns on the Côtes de Beaune and Côtes de Nuits. The skilled winemaker Jean Lupatelli crafted wines of excellent quality here, using 20 to 50 percent whole clusters in the reds, but he recently left the estate in the spring of 2021.
