Domaine Jean Marc Vincent Santenay 1er Cru Les Gravieres 2023 Red 750ml

Domaine Jean-Marc Vincent Santenay 1er Cru "Les Gravières" 2023 is a distinguished red Burgundy wine produced from Pinot Noir in the Premier Cru vineyards of Santenay, in the southern Côte de Beaune. Crafted by Anne-Marie and Jean-Marc Vincent, this wine reflects the character of its vineyard through concentrated fruit, savoury complexity and structured elegance.
The Les Gravières vineyard features clay and limestone soils, contributing to the wine's distinctive mineral character and depth. The grapes are carefully hand-harvested and sorted to select fruit at optimal maturity. Traditional winemaking techniques, including controlled maceration and extended ageing in oak barrels, help preserve the wine's fruit expression while developing its structure and complexity.
The 2023 vintage displays an expressive profile of ripe cherries and raspberries, complemented by floral nuances, subtle liquorice and finely textured tannins. Its balance of fruit concentration, freshness and earthy character makes it an excellent choice for fine dining, special occasions and collectors of premium Burgundy wines.
