Aline Beauné Santenay 1er Cru Beaurepaire 2022

From certified organic grapes. A lick of volatile acidity gives it the lift, and then it plunges deep into red and blue fruited waters, down to pink peppercorn and crushed violet depths. On the palate, cherry cola and liquorice have a graphite-like undertone coming through, highlighting the fine pedigree of the tannins. It would appeal to new world drinkers.
