Tasting note Ardhuy Aux Clous Savigny-les-Beaune 1er Cru
Bright ruby red in color. On the nose, aromas of cherries, raspberries, wild strawberries, and violets, complemented by subtle notes of spices, cedarwood, and a hint of earthy minerality. The palate is elegant and refined, with fresh acidity, silky tannins, and a long, harmonious finish. The wine is ready to drink now, but can be kept for another 10 to 15 years under good conditions.
Food Pairing
Ardhuy Aux Clous Savigny-les-Beaune 1er Cru pairs beautifully with duck breast, guinea fowl, veal, rosé-roasted lamb, or a classic Boeuf Bourguignon. This wine also makes an excellent combination with dishes featuring mushrooms, truffles, or soft, aged cheeses.
Other information
The Ardhuy family owns more than forty hectares of vineyards in places including Puligny-Montrachet, Gevrey-Chambertin, Clos de Vougeot, and Corton-Charlemagne. In every wine, they strive to reflect the character of the specific vineyard or wine region as much as possible. Each plot is fermented separately, and it is decided each year how the wine is composed and what aging process it undergoes. Domaine d'Ardhuy is a Burgundy estate that quickly became one of the top 5 producers in the region. A very extensive range of terroirs, and high quality from the base wines to the Crus.
The grapes are hand-harvested and carefully selected. After fermentation, the wine ages for approximately 12 to 15 months in French oak barrels, of which about 25 to 30% is new wood. This aging process gives the wine extra complexity without overpowering the refined fruit.
Premier Cru vineyards belong to the best plots in a village and are known for their higher quality and greater complexity."
Are you looking for an elegant Premier Cru that perfectly showcases the finesse of Pinot Noir? Then the Aux Clous is an excellent choice. A wine that already has charm, but will develop even more depth with a few years of bottle aging.

Fun fact
The name 'Aux Clous' probably does not refer to nails, but to an old Burgundian word for an enclosed or demarcated plot. Many historical climats (precisely demarcated vineyard plot) derive their name from landscape elements or the former use of the vineyard.
