Famille Roux - Santenay 1er Cru Beaurepaire

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.
