My first Santenay 1er Cru, Clos Faubard borders Chassagne-Montrachet and has higher proportion of limestone than most of clay heavier soils in Santenay.
The resulting wine is more dark fruited underpinned by chalky minerals that’s reminiscent of Cote de Nuits. Raspberry, blackberry, steeped red tea, forest floor, light dried herbs, and hint of purple floral. Medium to full bodied with lively acidity and energetic mid palate. The fruits are a bit chunky on the palate, with fine rustic tannins.
