Description
The bouquet of our Santenay, aged 16 months in Burgundy oak barrels, entwines the mineral character of its terroir of origin with concentrated black fruits, cinnamon and liquorice. Its silky palate elegantly displays its red fruits, with freshness and maturity in good proportions. The finish is warm, structured by a fine thread of tannins lifted by aromas of black peppercorns and lemon zest. With good keeping potential, this archetype of the Côte de Beaune will be appreciated after decanting for an hour and with a good cut of Charolais beef or a filet mignon.

2021, Santenay Vieilles Vignes, Domaine Chevrot- 87-90 / 100 Points
Mostly from Prarons with a bit of Charmes. A little whole bunch here. Darker fruit, attractive without quite the effortless balance of Maranges Sur le Chêne. Dark raspberry notes with a peppery finish which could be the whole bunches (40%). Drink from 2025-2028.
