Wine Details

Santenay 1er Cru Maladière Rouge 2017

Côte de Beaune
  • 75cl bottle

The Maladière climat is located mid-slope, between 300 and 320 metres altitude, with our 5ha of vines including some vines older than 50 years. The mix of browner, clay based soils on the western side and the higher limestone content in the east results in well-structured and appealing wines with complex aromas from long oak ageing.

Vintage

The 2017 vintage was very dry, but was relatively cool. Luckily, the frost damage was minimal and a combination of moderate day temperatures and cool evenings resulted in relatively good yield and wonderful flavour concentration.

Winemaking

Fermentation takes place in oak barrels, after which the wine is aged in casks for 12 months before being bottled.

Enjoy with:

  • Grilled and Roasted White Meats
  • Fish/Shellfish
Pairs beautifully with creamy fish pie
