Savigny-Les-Beaune is an old, typically Burgundian winegrowing village, just north of Beaune. Today, the appellation is divided between the cultivation of Pinot Noir (85%) and Chardonnay (15%).
The terroir of the "Grands Picotins" Climat is heavily influenced by its location. Set at the mouth of the combes of Savigny and Pernand-Vergelesses, the soil is particularly well drained due to the high proportion of rounded pebbles.
