Domaine Desire Petit, Savagnin Floral "S", 2023 so04102025Pertinace and Burlotto's expression of it

and Burlotto's expression of it is both historically faithful and compellingly modern

terroir-driven Bordeaux

slightly rounded mouthfeel and just the faintest floral whisper on the finish

The mineral backbone from the iron-rich soils adds complexity and freshness

but it shares the grape's seriousness and builds a compelling case for Nebbiolo's versatility within the broader Langhe region

Domaine Desire Petit, Savagnin Floral "S", 2023 so04102025Pertinace and Burlotto's expression of itYoung Savagnin with the volume turned up on flowers and fruit. This 'Floral' designation signals minimal intervention and primary aromatics: white flowers, golden fruit, a fresh expression that Damien Petit's biodynamic farming amplifies. No filtering, no acidificationjust natural fermentation and indigenous yeasts. This is the same grape as the 2018 ouill, but at opposite ends of the journey: questioning where it's headed, not where it's been.
