Domaine JEAN-MARC VINCENT Santenay 1er Cru "Le Beaurepaire" 2021 (Red)

Wine Region: Burgundy - France

Grape: Pinot Noir

Tasting notes: "Aromas of plums, rich spices, licorice and smoke preface the 2021 Santenay 1er Cru Le Beaurepaire Rouge, a medium to full-bodied, rich and fleshy wine with a deep core of fruit, supple and powdery tannins and an expansive finish. This aromatic, characterful red will offer a broad drinking window." - William Kelley, The Wine Advocate

About the winery: 
Domaine Jean-Marc Vincent is a small estate in Santenay, Burgundy, managed by Jean-Marc and Anne Marie. They cultivate the vineyard close to organic farming and use caterpillar-tracked engines instead of heavy machines. They "tress" their vines and plant them in high density, resulting in wines of exceptional intensity. Harvest is done by hand and sorted in the vineyard. The estate is known for its traditional methods and respect for Jean Marc's grandfather's traditions.
