Santenay 1er Cru "Les Gravières" 2020

Chardonnay Bottle - 75 cl

Santenay is the last important vineyard of the Côte d'Or towards the South, it is close to Chassagne Montrachet and produces mostly red wines.

Dégustation : Our 1er Cru "Les Gravières" with its intense yellow colour is a structured wine. On the palate, it reveals a beautiful salinity accompanied by exotic notes which give it great power. Its fine structure and minerality give it an energetic finish.

Description

Santenay is the last important vineyard of the Côte d'Or towards the South, it is close to Chassagne Montrachet and produces mostly red wines. The great climat "Les Graviéres", situated below the famous windmill of Santenay, owes its name to the numerous gravels, pebbles and calcareous sands present on this situation and which come from the combe de Saint-Aubin.

Vinification

Fermentation

The grapes are sorted, de-stemmed and then gently conveyed into the vat on a conveyor belt, without pumping. Before fermentation, we carry out a cold maceration at 10°C for 4 to 5 days. Vatting lasts between 18 and 20 days, during which we punch down the cap daily. The wine is then put into vats and put into barrels, and the malolactic fermentation is carried out in full.

Elevage12 months in French oak barrels
Fûts

Note de presse

Decanter World Wine Awards
Silver - 93/100 | juin 2023

Bright orchard fruit, melted butter and toast with hints of gingerbread; mouthfilling and ripe with a lemon curd texture.



International Wine Challenge
Gold - 95/100 | mai 2023

Creamy, buttery aromas. Melon and Golden Delicious apples. Spices. Elegant palate of creme brulee and pineapple with peaches, melassa and ginger and a toasty finish.



JamesSuckling.com
92/100 | avr. 2023

An elegant white Santenay that’s still really youthful. Lovely interplay of chalky minerality with fine citrus fruit. Good acidity for the warm and dry vintage, and this drives the long, fine-grained finish. Drink or hold.
