Amongst a strong line up of premiers crus in David’s cellar, this was the stand-out. It comes from a parcel which has some very hard limestone bedrock, though the wine is marked by its surprising suppleness. It seems to be the most fluent expression of the village in 2020, without the straighter edge of some of the other premier crus, but rather a tenderness all of its own.
The 2020 Santenay Clos des Mouches 1er Cru has a vivacious bouquet of red cherry and cranberry fruit plus a subtle floral, wilted-rose-petal aroma. The palate is medium-bodied with fleshy, ripe red fruit, fine tannins, good focus and gentle grip. There’s just a touch of white pepper on the aftertaste. This is another impressive Santenay from one of the appellation’s best exponents.
