Santenay, Côte de Beaune, Burgundy, France
Manly comes to mind first, with incense smoke, palo santo, and sandalwood up front. Toasty dusty earth notes, graphite and sage intermingle too, while some rose petal pokes out as the only thing feminine in a very masculine wine. Tannins are firm and fine, giving clench and virility throughout a moderately long finish. Could use a bit more color but I'm not complaining...

Ch de la Maltroye. Light on its feet, bright ruby and youthful aromas of cherry pop tart and red vines.
