 Tasted by Burgundy Al on 1/14/2021 & rated 91 points: Double blind, this is rich and unctuous with lots of fat and fleshy fruit, just enough structure to provide balance and energy. (1193 views)
 Tasted by Nanda on 1/14/2021 & rated 92 points: Pure, linear aromas. Palate is rich with fruit that is at once bright, round and chiseled. Good concentration and drinking well already. Seems like one to drink now though 2026. (671 views)
 Tasted by Nanda on 11/18/2020: My first blanc from Pavelot. This is quite good and approachable now. Significant concentration of primary orchard fruit with excellent minerality. Tasty now, better in 5-10 years. (609 views)

Domaine Pavelot (Jean-Marc et Hugues)

Producer website

THE DOMAIN IS MANAGED BY HUGUES PAVELOT, WHO HAS TAKEN OVER IN RECENT YEARS FROM HIS FATHER JEAN-MARC.The domaine has impressive holdings: six plots of premier cru Savigny-les-Beaune, three of which are in the famed valley of Bouilland. Their basic Savigny is a perfect marriage of tension and freshness. The premier crus beautifully reflect their respective terroirs, and have proven over time their ability to age with grace and elegance. It is is highly recommended to cellar crus like Les Peuillets and La Dominode. A perusal of reviews from recent vintages by Burghound’s Allan Meadows reveals that Pavelot is amongst the appellation’s best.


Today, Hugues Pavelot handles operations and wine production, and Domainet is recognized as one of the best producers in
Savigny-Lés-Beaune.
He has taken over this Domaine after his father Jean-Marc. They currently own 13 hectares of vineyards primarily in Savigny-Lés-Beaune, of which no less than approx. 7.8 acres is 1st cru. Of which also 0.09 acres white Corton Grand Cru. They are located in the town of Savigny-Lés-Beaune, where all production and storage also takes place.
Their vineyards consist mainly of old vines, in some areas of their fields with an age of up to 80 years!
The vinification is optimized in relation to the individual terroir. It is important for Hugues that the individual terroir for the opportunity to express themselves with the right characteristics terroir for terroir.
Next to their own wines, they have started making some wine from grapes they buy from other winemakers (negociant business).

Burgundy

Les vins de Bourgogne (Bureau interprofessionnel des vins de Bourgogne) (and in English)

Burgundy - The province of eastern France, famous for its red wines produced from Pinot Noir and its whites produced from Chardonnay. (Small of amounts of Gamay and Aligoté are still grown, although these have to be labeled differently.) The most famous part of the region is known as the Cote d'Or (the Golden Slope). It is divided into the Cote de Beaune, south of the town of Beaune (famous principally for its whites), and the Cote de Nuits, North of Beaune (home of the most famous reds). In addition, the Cote Chalonnaise and the Maconnais are important wine growing regions, although historically a clear level (or more) below the Cote d'Or. Also included by some are the regions of Chablis and Auxerrois, farther north.

# 2013 Vintage Notes:
* "2013 is a vintage that 20 years ago would have been a disaster." - Will Lyons
* "low yields and highly variable reds, much better whites." - Bill Nanson
* "Virtually all wines were chaptalised, with a bit of sugar added before fermentation to increase the final alcohol level." - Jancis Robinson

# 2014 Vintage Notes:
"We have not had such splendid harvest weather for many years. This will ensure high quality (fragrant, classy and succulent are words already being used) across the board, up and down the hierarchy and well as consistently from south to north geographically apart from those vineyards ravaged by the hail at the end of June." - Clive Coates

# 2015 Vintage Notes:
"Low yields and warm weather allowed for ample ripeness, small berries and an early harvest. Quality is looking extremely fine, with some people whispering comparisons with the outstanding 2005 vintage. Acid levels in individual wines may be crucial." - Jancis Robinson

# 2017 Vintage Notes:
"Chablis suffered greatly from frost in 2017, resulting in very reduced volumes. As ever, the irony seems to be that what remains is very good quality, as it is in the Côte d’Or. Cooler nights across the region have resulted in higher-than-usual acidity, with good conditions throughout the harvest season allowing for ripe, healthy fruit." - Jancis Robinson

# 2018 Vintage Notes:
"The most successful region for red Burgundy in 2018 was the Côte de Beaune. The weather was ideal in this area, with just enough sunlight and rain to produce perfectly balanced wines naturally." - Vinfolio
