Suggestion from December 10 2025
Wine: 2015 Santenay "La Comme"
Producer: Château de la Maltroye
Comment: This is also moderately reduced and again, I would suggest a thorough aeration if you're going to crack a bottle young. On the plus side there is a terrific sense of energy to the beautifully well-delineated middle weight flavors that possess a palate feel that is akin of rolling small pebbles around in your mouth, all wrapped in a textured, intense and unusually dry finish in the context of what is typical for the vintage. This is excellent and worth a look.
