Pale ruby in color, clear and bright. The nose has rhubarb, cranberries and cherries. It is nice no earthiness or funk. On the palate, there is a slight complexity here. Tart cherries and cranberries. It is refreshing but again lacks the depth or earthiness one might hope for after 15 years from a good vintage. Yes, even from a Santenay. It does have good acidity and is not really showing much age. Certainly not young but seems just fine here. It probably won't get better though.
