The 2016 red Santenay 1er Cru Le Beauregard is a consistent, balanced, and perfectly ripe wine. It opens with shimmering notes of pit fruit, with a lovely freshness, cherry notes also adjusted on a present woodiness that underlines without imposing. The juice is deep, juicy, full and harmonious, with beautifully crafted tannins. Ready to drink until 2030. Rated 93+/100 by the Committee. |
