Tasting notes
The 2010 Volnay 1er Cru Santenots, which comes from more limestone soils that conjoin Les Cras and contains 100% whole-cluster fruit, has an impressive bouquet with fine vigor: black plum, touches of black tea and black pepper. The palate is fresh and vibrant with firm tannins, is quite masculine at the moment, structured and serious with a fine, fresh finish that needs more bottle age to develop the persistency. Drink 2018-2028.
