2022 Santenay, Cuvée "S", David Moreau, Burgundy

Description

This wine is named after David’s grandmother Simone. It comes from two plots – Cornières and Charmes. It’s almost exclusively millerand fruit, and it comes through in the concentration and rich, deep cherry fruit. There’s a gorgeous, creamy texture and the succulent feel of ripe but fresh cherries.

Critics reviews

Jasper Morris MW 88-91/100

An attractive glowing purple. A slightly more vigorous fruit, this is a cut above. In fact, it is a really lovely red fruited Santenay, darker berries here, a little spice from the wood but the fruit is-in control. Recommended.

The 2022 Santenay Cuvée S, named after Moreau's grandmother Simone, comes from colluvial soils that tend to suffer. It has a refined and elegant bouquet with red cherries and crushed strawberry scents - fine minéralité here. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grain tannins, an "airy" Santenay with impressive purity and grace. Feels very sustained on the finish. I feel it will gain more intensity by the time of bottling.

Drink 2026 - 2038
