Tasting

Notes

This is white Burgundy with a résumé. Premier Cru pedigree, citrus zip, and creamy finesse from a vineyard beside the Château de Passetemps—once home to a 19th-century owner of Domaine de la Romanée-Conti. All grapefruit brightness and brioche softness, this Santenay knows how to impress.

Wine Details

Wine Details

Burgundy Royalty with a Twist of Citrus.

This is Santenay Blanc turned up to eleven—rich, creamy, but still full of verve. The nose is a citrus grove at golden hour: lemon curd, pink grapefruit, a flick of lime peel. On the palate, ripe orchard fruit glides over toasted brioche and soft butter, with chalky minerality holding it all together like the perfect linen jacket.

There’s a plushness to it—Premier Cru weight without heaviness. It doesn’t just coat your mouth; it charms it.

📍 The Plot

‘Passetemps’ is a Premier Cru parcel in Santenay with serious Côte de Beaune credentials. Just beyond its rows sits the Château de Passetemps, once the residence of a 19th-century owner of Domaine de la Romanée-Conti. With excellent exposure and limestone-rich soils, this site yields Chardonnay with both structure and flair. A quiet corner of history, now in a glass.
