2018 Simon Bize Savigny-les-Beaune 1er Cru Aux Vergelesses #167272590
John Gilman
Reviews 92 points Wine Advocate "...mingling hints of rose petals and exotic spices with aromas of sweet berries and forest floor in an inviting melange. Medium to full-bodied, layered and multidimensional, it's deep and complete, with a muscular chassis of tannin and a rich core of fruit. (WK)" 93 points John Gilman "The bouquet is deep, pure and very classy, wafting from the glass in a mix of dark berries, black cherries, gamebird, woodsmoke, gentle spice tones, just a whisper of fruitcake and a very complex base of soil. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied and very elegant in profile, with a sappy core, fine mineral drive, ripe, buried tannins and outstanding length and grip on the complex and very refined finish. (JG)"

About Simon Bize
What sets Simon Bize apart is their focus on traditional winemaking techniques combined with a modern approach. The winery uses only the finest grapes grown in their own vineyards, carefully hand-picked and fermented using natural yeasts. The winemaking style includes 100% whole cluster fermentation and little to no new oak, resulting in fresh, vibrant, and pure red and white wines.
The wines of Simon Bize are a true standout in the world of fine wine. From crisp and refreshing Chardonnays to rich and full-bodied Pinot Noirs, there is a Simon Bize wine to suit every taste. The winery's signature wine, the "Les Santenays," represents what makes Simon Bize's wines so unique. This wine is made from the rare Santenay grape variety and is known for its delicate balance of fruit and acidity, with a subtle hint of earthiness that is truly one of a kind.
Neal Martin, for The Wine Advocate, has reported that the wines of Domaine Simon Bize are "a set of marvelous wines, unrepentantly classic in style, the use of whole cluster adroitly used as always" and recommends aging these longer than you would think for Cote d'Or.
