Philippe Colin, Santenay Gravieres Rouge Vintage:2019 cool and distinctly restrained aromasA more discreet dollop of wood is present on the nicely cool and ripe nose of mostly dark pinot fruit, newly turned earth and a whiff of spice. The rich, concentrated and lush medium bodied flavors are a bit more obviously mineral driven while delivering fine length on the ever so slightly austere finale. This is relatively forward and could be enjoyed after only 2 to 3 years of bottle age.
