Cask sample. Pretty pale garnet. Heady, voluptuous nose. Sweet start and extremely polished tannins. A light vegetal note. But interesting and well balanced with just a hint of beetroot. Rather beautiful balance – great texture with the silkiest of tannins. You could enjoy this tonight. Lively and light. (JR)

With 30% whole cluster fruit and 15% new oak, the 2019 Santenay Clos Rousseau 1er Cru has a tightly wound nose of crushed rose petal and strawberry fruit, maybe just missing a little amplitude. The palate is medium-bodied with a fresh entry, crunchy red fruit and a slightly bitter but focused finish. It becomes increasingly peppery with aeration. Give it a couple of years in bottle.
