Description
Santenay Rouge "Champs Claude" 2022 | Wine from Domaine Lucien Muzard & Fils
The Domaine Lucien Muzard & Fils is a family-run estate rooted in the Burgundian winemaking tradition. Founded in the 1960s by Lucien Muzard, the estate was joined by his sons Claude and Hervé, who brought a new dynamic by focusing on bottle sales rather than bulk sales. This 18-hectare estate, with a majority of red vines (80%), is recognized for its quality and commitment to artisanal winemaking. The arrival of Capucine, Claude's daughter, in 2019 marked the beginning of a new era, with the introduction of innovative cuvées from a trading activity.
The Santenay Rouge "Champs Claude" Vieilles Vignes 2022 comes from a 1.49-hectare plot located at 270 meters altitude, neighboring the Morgeot of Chassagne. The vines, over 70 years old, are carefully cultivated: cordon de royat pruning, soil plowing, debudding, trellising, and leaf thinning. Harvesting is done manually, ensuring optimal quality.
After the harvest, the grapes are 70% destemmed and ferment thanks to indigenous yeasts, offering an authentic aromatic profile. The maceration lasts 18 to 20 days and is followed by aging in Burgundy barrels, with 15% to 20% new barrels, adding extra complexity to the wine.
The Santenay Rouge 2022 is characterized by generous aromas of ripe red fruits, complemented by subtle notes of undergrowth and spices. On the palate, it reveals fine and well-integrated tannins, with a beautiful aromatic persistence. Its texture is both supple and elegant, offering a perfect balance between freshness and complexity.
This Santenay pairs wonderfully with roasted meats such as leg of lamb or duck breast. It also goes very well with aged cheeses like Comté or Beaufort, enhancing the flavors gently.
