AOC
2023 Vignobles Ludovic Pierrot, Santenay Premier Cru, Clos de Tavannes 6x75cl
Crimson magenta in colour with a suggestion of weight and majesty on the nose. No detail as yet. This clearly is a magnificent terroir. There is so much more to this, it seems to have a Côte de... Nuits profile. The oak is very well integrated, while there is a darker note to the fruit at the finish which is not at all sombre. A complete and classic wine.
