Tasting notes
Reviewed by: Neal Martin
The 2023 Meursault Les Santenots 1er Cru has a light nose of clementine and yellow fruit, a little straight-laced compared to some of its peers. The palate is slightly honeyed on the entry, with a keen thread of acidity to counter the richness that is probably a result of the late-summer heat. Candied orange peel commingles with stem ginger towards the finish. Enjoy over the next decade.
