Aux Grands Liards is just below Les Lavieres, a premier cru site. The vines were planted in stages between 1938 and 1979 on limestone soil, marked by reddish clay gravel. The wine has more backbone and tends to be more of a masculine expression of Pinot Noir. It is a 1.60 hectare parcel. Aux Grands Liards was one of Patrick Bize's favorite wines in the cellar. It was also the first parcel the family owned.
Decanter Magazine: 93 Points
From 1.6 hectares on a shallow slope below Les Lavières with more clay in the soil. The grapes are fermented as mostly whole clusters and aged using little new wood to produce this wine with a lovely, singing fruit and floral notes up front. The texture is silky and fine - among the most approachable in the cellar during its youth. It should open three to five years after harvest and is perfect for mid-term ageing.
Vinous: 91-93 Points
The 2022 Savigny-lès-Beaune Les Grands Liards has a beguiling nose: dark berry fruit, cranberry, hints of iris floor and a light potpourri scent. Wonderful definition. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly powdery tannins at the moment. It offers crisp and vivacious dark berry fruit laced with Earl Grey, gently fanning out towards a refined and cohesive finish. Superb.
