The wine region of Santenay
Southernmost cru of the Cote de Beaune: signature Pinot Noir as king red (~80%) — ruby robe with notes of cherry, raspberry, blackberry, wild strawberry, violet and a hint of spice, supple tannins and a generous finish, more accessible than its northern neighbours. Chardonnay as a broad white (citrus, apple, almond, honey, white flowers). AOC (1937), ~330 ha on Santenay and Remigny, 12 Premiers Crus (Les Gravieres, La Comme), limestone marls, ages 4-10 years.
The wine region of Burgundy
Absolute reference for great terroir wines: opulent, mineral Chardonnay in whites (chiselled Chablis, buttery Meursault, majestic Montrachet), fine and silky Pinot Noir in reds (full-bodied Gevrey, structured Pommard, delicate Volnay). Exceptional age-worthy wines with complex notes - red fruits, undergrowth, butter, hazelnut. Some lively Aligoté and light Gamay (Mâconnais). 29,500 ha, 84 tiered AOCs (Régionale, Village, 1er Cru, Grand Cru), 1,247 UNESCO Climats.
