2023 Santenay 1er Cru Clos des Mouches, David Moreau
Amongst a strong lineup of Premiers Crus in David’s cellar, this is always our favourite. It comes from a parcel with a hard limestone bedrock, producing a wine that is marked by its surprising suppleness. In 2023 David used around 10-15% whole bunch – this is a wine marked by vibrancy and minerality. A tense core of red cherry fruit lifts to reveal a Pinot of real finesse with a saline finish.

91-93/100 – Neal Martin, vinous.com

The 2023 Santenay Clos des Mouches 1er Cru includes 15% whole bunch. The bouquet has fine mineralité, blackcurrant/blueberry fruit and touches of violet. The palate is medium-bodied with red berry fruit, white pepper and light orange peel notes. Quite precise with good length, there is a pleasant black pepper aftertaste.
