Tasting notes: "Benefiting from impeccable viticulture and also the choice to declassify any under-performing lots to Bourgogne level, Vincent's 2021 Santenay Vieille Vignes bursts with aromas of orange zest, plums, smoke and spices.

About the winery: Domaine Jean-Marc Vincent is a small estate in Santenay, Burgundy, managed by Jean-Marc and Anne Marie. They cultivate the vineyard close to organic farming and use caterpillar-tracked engines instead of heavy machines. They "tress" their vines and plant them in high density, resulting in wines of exceptional intensity. Harvest is done by hand and sorted in the vineyard. The estate is known for its traditional methods and respect for Jean Marc's grandfather's traditions.
