Santenay Rouge 2017

• 75cl bottle

Made from a blend of various plots covering 1.83ha, some located on top of the hill above Santenay-le-Haut and others at the foot of the hill. The wine is well-structured with a deep colour and robust tannins, softened by 18 months of ageing in oak. Expressive red fruit characters dominate.

Vintage

The 2017 vintage was very dry, but was relatively cool. Luckily, the frost damage was minimal and a combination of moderate day temperatures and cool evenings resulted in relatively good yield and wonderful flavour concentration.

Winemaking

Grapes are vinified in open vats for around 4 weeks, followed by around 18 months in oak.

Enjoy with:

• Grilled and Roasted Red Meats
• Grilled and Roasted White Meats
• Pizza/Pasta
• Mild Creamy Cheeses

Perfect with coq au vin or grilled tuna.
