  From 75cl, perfect cork, quick decant for copious powdery sediment. Rustic, low-acid, inexpressive, ripe PN, clean dark fruit, short and ephemeral. Drink up. 86P

  From 75cl, dry cork broke during extraction. Needed 90 minutes to open up. Then as previously noted, e.g. on 23.05.2019. No hurry. 89P

  Pleasant and pretty, typical of Santenay. Drinking well now, but still some structure so no rush.

  From 75cl, perfect cork. Fresh, ripe, clean, darkish cherry fruit, squeaky texture, an excellent minor burg. 89P

  From 75cl, perfect cork, P+P. Ripe, generous, black-cherry fruited PN. On the rustic side, almost New World friendly at first, some burgundian "barnyard" sh** as it warmed up. This is still a baby and may have further potential in 4-8 years, but as Hugh Johnson so rightly warns, one shouldn't expect even very good Santenay to taste "exquisite". 88-89P
