Vertical Packs from Jean Marc et Hugues Pavelot
A question that I get asked regularly as a wine professional is “how do you find value in Burgundy?” It's an age-old question and the answer can change constantly. Today I will skip the long answer and go to the quick and fast response: I believe there is value in Burgundy for all, as long as you are open to looking past flashy names! Today’s offer of value Burgundy comes from a name many might have heard before, but have often (for reasons I do not know) overlooked. The Pavelot family has been cultivating vines in Savigny-les-Beaune since at least the French Revolution, however, it was not until Jean-Marc joined in the 1980s that the estate achieved the level of quality it is now known for. Jean-Marc's son Hugues took over in the late 2000s and built on his father's work, always fermenting with native yeast, favoring minimal use of new oak, and most recently converting the farming fully to organic. As Jon Gilman writes in View from The Cellar #42 (November-December 2012): "it is hard to think of another domaine in Burgundy that has made the transition in recent times from father to son at the head of the estate so smoothly and with such a continuity of style." Jasper Morris of Inside Burgundy has said that Pavelot should be in the same conversations as Simon Bize when it comes to talking about Savigny-les-Beaune (and I couldn’t agree more). These wines are expertly made with incredible depth and concentration. They are built to last, yet offer a vibrancy and charm for those who are less patient.
Outside of our incredible private cellar offerings, it is rare for us to be able to showcase wines that are already aged. What is even more rare is to then highlight those same perfectly aged wines alongside current vintage releases. This magical combination gives one the opportunity to see how a wine can develop from an estate, compare bottles to understand how vintage can affect a wine, or just to have a fun theme for a dinner party!
Today, we're excited to offer this aforementioned magical combination in the form of mixed 6-bottle and 3-bottle vertical offerings from Premier Cru sites in Savigny-les-Beaune from Domaine Pavelot!
