Famille Roux - Santenay 1er Cru Beaurepaire 2018
Tasting notes
Color is a brilliant black-cherry. The bouquet evokes rose-petals, peony, violet, red fruits and a hint of licorice. In the mouth, the attack is deep and intense. Firm but discreet tannins make for a body that is supple, fine-textured and well-built. It boasts back aromas (often of bilberry) and a long finish. Handpicked and fermented in stainless steel tanks followed by aging in oak barrels (25% new casks) for 15-17 months.
Estate
Founded in 1885, Domaine Roux is currently operated by the 4th and 5th generation of the Roux family. With vineyard holdings throughout the Côte d'Or, the Domaine is situated in the Saint Aubin village of the Côte de Beaune. This historic property maintains one of the most incredible libraries of older vintages. No one in Burgundy has such an impressive collection of verticals from such a diverse array of villages, single vineyards and Premier Cru wines.
