Louis Latour Santenay – Santenay – Red – 2022:

 

Experience the structured elegance of Louis Latour’s Santenay Red Wine, a masterful expression of Pinot Noir from the southern tip of the Côte de Beaune. Known for its full-bodied character, this wine is often said to capture the finesse of Volnay and the power of Pommard.

Tasting Profile & Terroir

The Santenay displays a brilliant ruby hue in the glass. The complex and refined nose opens with a bouquet of small red berries-notably cherry and raspberry-enriched by sophisticated notes of undergrowth, mocha, and liquorice. On the palate, it delivers a round, supple entry, structured by fine and silky tannins. The balance is impeccable, offering a persistent finish with black fruit aromas and a lovely freshness.

Pairing & Serving Suggestions

This premium Red Burgundy is best served at 57-59°F (14-15°C). It is the quintessential partner for hearty, slow-cooked dishes and rich meats:

• Classic Pairings: Beef Pot Roast, Braised Venison, Duck Confit.
• Vegetarian Options: Mushroom Risotto or Pasta with earthy sauces.
• Cheese Board: Aged Cheddar, Soft Cheeses (Brie, Camembert).

With a cellaring potential of 3-5 years, this Santenay is a refined investment that will develop deeper, spicier, and earthier notes over time.
