Description
Simon Colin continues his family’s Côte de Beaune legacy with exceptional precision, and his 2022 Santenay 1er Cru Les Gravières is a standout. From one of the village’s most respected climats, this bottling delivers ripe red cherry, crushed raspberries, and sweet herbs on the nose, wrapped in a silken texture that’s classic 2022. The limestone-rich soils of Les Gravières lend a distinctive mineral backbone that keeps the generous fruit in perfect check. With 15 months’ élevage in 25% new oak, it shows polish without excess. A serious, age-worthy Santenay that offers Premier Cru pedigree at an accessible price.
