Golden green in color, clear and bright. Great nose with lemon/lime and a slight chalk note. Medium bodied with crisp acidity. On the palate, this has some depth. Grapefruit along with a touch of chalkiness. Nice finish. This drinks very easily on its own and works well with lighter foods, or seafood. A nice wine with lobster. Drink over the next seven to ten years.
This is not your typical Santenay. For one thing, it is white. For another, this is one of the best. 100% Chardonnay. Light golden in color, clear and bright. Vibrant nose of peach, apple and slight tropical fruit. Medium bodied. Slightly viscous. Crisp acidity. On the palate, this is delicious. Deep and complex with peach, apple, minerality and slight salinity. Long finish. This is drinking well and should for the next five to eight years (and maybe more). Better with food, this will go well with chicken or tuna salad.
Light golden in color with slight green tinges. The nose is very nice with some lemon cream and underlying minerality. This has a nice smokiness to it and also a bit of salinity. On the palate, this is a bit fat and more acidity would be nice. That said, it has lovely lemon fruit and a nice minerality. Good finish. It would work well with some rich seafood dishes.
Light golden in color. The nose has some lemons, a bit of hay but a touch of oxidation as well. Not too much though. On the palate, the lemons carry thru with nice acidity. Slightly candied on the finish. This kept improving all night with air and the bit of oxidation seemed less obvious as other elements were more present. Nice finish. This worked quite well with a funghi pizza. It may improve a bit with more storage, but it seems like it should be drunk sooner than later at this point. Of course, one always worries with oxidation and white Burgundies.
Light golden in color. The nose is very nice. Lemons, slightly candied, a bit of vanilla, and slight spice. On the palate, this has a creamy texture. Good not great acidity. Slightly oily texture. The lemon candy come thru nicely. A bit of oak too on the palate, but mostly integrated at this point. Good finish. Worked well with lighter foods. Seems to still be maturing but getting close to peak. No hurry has a decade or more to go.
