2022 Santenay 1er Cru Clos des Mouches, David Moreau

2022 Santenay 1er Cru Clos des Mouches, David Moreau

Amongst a strong line up of premiers crus in David’s cellar, this is always our favourite. It comes from a parcel with a hard limestone bedrock, producing a wine that is marked by its surprising suppleness. In 2022 it is so fine, so Pinot. This is the work of a winemaker at the peak of his abilities, coaxing an ephemeral beauty from his Pinot.

Tasting notes

An attractive bouquet of peonies and fresh raspberries, very classy. Fine nuanced little berry fruits, ideal fruit acid balance, medium plus length, a very harmonious Santenay with good length. Drink from 2027-2033. Tasted: November 2023.
