Maison Chanson - Santenay

<h1>Bourgogne CHANSON Père & Fils</h1> <h2>Depuis 1750 à Beaune</h2> <h3>Santenay 2007</h3><h4>The Vine</h4><b>Variety :</b>Pinot Noir <br><b>Soil :</b>Limestone mixed with clay<br><b>Site :</b>The vineyard is located on the hill of the commune of Santenay, a small village South of the Côte de Beaune, near Chassagne Montrachet.<br><br><br><h4>The Wine</h4><b>Vintage 2007 :</b>The weather at the start of summer was quite demanding. It became fine again from the end of August with much sun and a north wind, which aided concentration of flavours and gave rise to an exceptional phenolic maturity. The harvest commenced in mid-September in perfect conditions under an Indian summer. This results in red wines with a crunchy flesh and an explosion of red fruits marvellously combined with the minerality of the terroirs. Aged in French oak during 16 months.<br><b>Tasting :</b>Bright ruby colour. Aromas of red berries (cherries and rapsberry) mixed with chocolate and enhanced by a hint of vanilla. Complex and well-balanced. Dense with a beautiful structure. Refined tannins and delicate oak note. Long and refreshing aftertaste. <br><b>Food Pairing</b>To be enjoyed with roast meat or meat en sauce, games and most cheeses (especially Citeaux, Epoisses, Langres).<br><br><br><br><h3>Santenay 2006</h3><h4>The Vine</h4><b>Variety :</b>Pinot Noir <br><b>Soil :</b>Limestone mixed with clay<br><b>Site :</b>The vineyard is located on the hill of the commune of Santenay, a small village South of the Côte de Beaune, near Chassagne Montrachet.<br><br><br><h4>The Wine</h4><b>Vintage 2006 :</b>The weather at the start of summer was quite demanding.
