"The climat Les Charmes shares with Meursault the particularity of being divided between Charmes du dessous and Charmes du dessus. Here, a Charmes "tout court" from a lovely 1.15 ha parcel offers a bouquet of ripe black fruit with a touch of pepper. The fruit is accompanied by a fine woodiness on the full, well-structured palate". (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2021) From old vines planted in 1971, Santenay Charmes presents a lovely concentrated fruit with notes of Morello cherry and blackcurrant, complemented by a touch of liquorice. Round and generous, it's an immediate pleasure!

About the domain :
This ancient estate, which dates back to the 18th century, now covers 24 hectares. It is run by Roger Belland, who set up in 1981, his daughter Julie, who joined in 2003 and is in charge of vinification, and their new collaborator Martin Boyer. No certified organic farming here, but controlled, reasoned viticulture (total grassing of the vineyard, no weedkillers), and wines of great consistency.

About the wine:
A subtle Morello cherry note promises freshness on the nose. On the palate, too, this bright, acidic fruit appears on a slender, slightly crisp body with fresh honesty and verve.
