Domaine Roux Pere et Fils Santenay 1er Cru Beauregard 2019 750 ML

Domaine Roux Pere & Fils was founded in 1885 with a mere 4 hectares in the village of Saint-Aubin in the heart of Burgundy, France. Under the leadership of the 3rd and 4th generation, Marcel Roux and his son Christian, the family’s proprietary vineyard holdings have expanded to include more than 70 hectares located throughout the Cote d’Or, most extensively in the sub-region of Cote de Beaune. Today, Domaine Roux is one of the top 10 largest landholders in the region, wholly owned and operated by the 4th and 5th generation. Its vines are planted exclusively on eastern and southern facing slopes, benefiting from premium exposures. Their vast holdings are comprised of varying soils. All grapes are harvested by hand at optimal ripeness and vinified in accordance with the appellation’s regulations.
With steadfast attention to detail, Domaine Roux combines valuable traditions with the most advanced technology to produce a vast portfolio of terroir-driven, varietally accurate expressions of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir renowned for superior quality.Color is a brilliant black-cherry. The bouquet evokes rose-petals, peony, violet, red fruits and a hint of licorice. In the mouth, the attack is deep and intense. Firm but discreet tannins make for a body that is supple, fine-textured and well-built. It boasts back aromas (often of bilberry) and a long finish. Handpicked and fermented in stainless steel tanks followed by aging in oak barrels (25% new casks) for 15-17 months.
