Albert Bichot Santenay 1er Cru Clos Rousseau 2018 750ml

Typical of the Côte de Beaune reds, the nose is intensely fruity with redcurrant, plum and black cherry aromas enhanced with hints of white pepper and kirsch. Nervy, fleshy and generous, this wine has character and good structure. The finish is long and fruity. This is an ideal wine for fine dishes such as red meat, game and classic cheeses.

"A classic Côte de Beaune red with exactly the lively red-fruit character, together with, delicate earthiness and hint of spice that you expect from these wines. Well-judged tannins that don’t dominate the wine at any point, the fresh finish long and precisely contoured."
