Domaine Serrigny Bourgogne Rouge

Domaine Serrigny dates from the late 19th century. It’s made up of 7 hectares of vines  and is run today by Marie Laure Serrigny. She’s the fourth generation, and she took over the estate in 1995 with her younger sister Francine. They tended the vines, made the wine, and together did all the myriad of things involved in running a domaine until late in 2016 when Francine succumbed to a long battle with cancer. From three parcels in Savigny: Les Chevrières, a high, rocky site planted to a third of an acre in 1980; Les Préveaux on the plain near Savigny's watershed planted to just over a half acre in 1960; and Les Boutières on the Aloxe-Corton border planted to a half acre in 1995. Serrigny's Bourgogne Rouge is aged 12 months in neutral barrels and then six in large steel blending tanks. Production averages 250 cases.
