NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
Aromas of ripe red fruit and subtle, earthy complexities give Joseph Drouhin Santenay its signature character.On the palate, there are notes of cherry and raspberry, along with hints of spice and a hint of smoke. Balanced with a firm yet elegant tannic structure, this wine is a delight to drink now, but it has the potential to develop further complexity with age.
