Descrizione
History
David Moreau, a talented young winemaker based in Santenay, crafts wines with technical precision and artisanal care. “Sous Montot” comes from an old vineyard planted in the 1970s on marl-limestone soils with western exposure. The 2022 vintage is expressive and was handled gently—spontaneous fermentations, about 5% whole cluster, and aging split between used oak barrels and stainless steel tanks. The result is a pure, terroir-driven red wine made even more compelling in Magnum format thanks to its aging potential.
