Surprisingly dark color; light strawberry, herbs, and bouqet of white lillies on the nose; high acids, fine tannins and low alcohol on the palate with a fruit- and mineral-driven midpalate and finish. Might improve over a decade or a half; but quite awkward now.

Light, fresh, lean, light with mid red fruits. Clean and refreshing.

Took about an hour to show what it had. Doesn't need to age any longer, but it is drinking well now.

So fruity with just a tiny bit of funky and plenty of acid - reminds one of a nice Beauj
Anniversary wine

Smell of wineCellars barnyard funk, some dried spices and berries in the back. Looks and tastes much fresher than last bottle. Perfectly mature and enjoyable.

Sep 16th, 2022Still small fresh red fruits but all covered in tertiary influences. Soft, delicate and not up to a piece of bbqd veal. ;-)
Pleasurable wine nevertheless.

2016 was a difficult vintage in Santenay. Very earthy profile. Blackberry and Cranberry fruit. Violets and baking spices on the nose. Full and round but there is a bit of sharpness. Give this one time to open up.
