René Lequin-Colin Santenay 1er Cru "Le Passe-Temps" 2007. It smelled of wonderful, sexy Pinosity for the first few minutes open then changed into a style with more vegetal and tart aromas (I haven't had much Santenay, but it changed into the style I see often from Mercurey - are these two usually similar?). Quite full bodied for I what I thought was a lighter terroir. Perhaps the oak was a bit too obvious at times, but maybe that isn't a horrible crime in a youngster. A pleasant enough experience that I look forward to trying the white from them that also recently became available here.
I don't drink wine because of religious reasons ... only for other reasons.
