Tasted at the vertical tasting at Sociando-Mallet

There is a notably finer and more sophisticated mouth feel to the round

This is a deceptive wine as it appears unduly easy yet it’s not simple and possesses sufficient buried structure to permit this to improve for 5 years and last for 10 to 12

Sound acids and suave but firm-edged tannins give this excellent balance

Just starting to show its lushly textured

Francois Mikulski, Volnay Santenots Milieu other_regions_italy Tasted at the vertical tastingA plethora of floral elements, especially violet and lilac, is present on the aromas of dark cherry, red currant and pretty spice nuances. There is again a lovely sense of energy to the detailed, stony and tautly muscular flavors that possess focused power that seems to build on the youthfully austere, sappy and impressively long finish. This is a classically styled Santenots that will also need at least some patience.
