Savigny Les Beaune Monopole

All wines at Henri de Villamont are harvested exclusively by hand. The grapes grow in a monopole vineyard, which means that Villamont is the sole owner of the vineyard. In Burgundy you see a lot that many vineyards are divided by inheritance law.

The result of a sustainable agricultural policy applied to the entire vineyard, of vinification that respects the quality of the grapes and is adapted to each terroir, this direct production serves as a reference for the purchase of grapes from carefully selected winegrowers.

The same care is given to each appellation, with the aim of choosing excellent raw materials that then produce great wines. A control of the vines by the technical team and sustainability in the supply contracts make it possible to produce wines of a quality identical to those produced on the properties of the house. Emphasis is placed on the constant quest to express the best of each climate.

Each year, the wines are aged with care in traditional 228-litre Burgundy barrels, in the house's historic cellars.

These wines are aged with the utmost care in vaulted cellars for 6 to 18 months. The barrels come exclusively from French oak forests with an appropriate proportion of new barrels. Subsequently, every effort is made to preserve the authenticity and intrinsic qualities of the wines.
