🍷 Heritage in a Glass – Cuvée Savarde 2022 – Clemens Bertrand

Savarde is the name of the estate’s oldest vineyard. For generations, these vines have rooted deep into the sandy loam soils of Prouilly. Their age delivers Pinot Noir grapes with remarkable concentration and complexity – ideal for crafting serious red wine in a pure terroir style.

✨ Tasting Notes

In the glass, a deep ruby hue. The nose offers black cherry, ripe raspberry, and wild blackberry, framed by notes of rose petals, clove, and a hint of cedar from extended oak aging.
On the palate, ripe red fruit meets silky tannins, fresh acidity, and an elegant oak structure. Flavours of morello cherry, forest floor, and delicate spice add depth. The finish is long and refined, with a mineral touch and a whisper of pure cocoa.
