Dense and intense from the beginning with some animal notes those other wines don’t have. Subtle on the palate, (old vines) relayed by length and strength in the mouthfeel.
Serve at 16-18 °C with red meat, tuna, duck in cranberry sauce
The Santenots is a success this year, with a classic bouquet of creamy cassis and black fruit, followed on the palate by a rich, powerful wine with a firm chassis of tannin and good balancing acidity. While this will need time, it should reward the patient. Drinking Window 2025 - 2045
