The 2020 Santenay 1er Cru Clos Rousseau mingles aromas of sweet red berries and plums with notions of peonies, orange rind and forest floor in an inviting bouquet. Medium-bodied, supple and seamless, with lively acids and a saline finish, it will offer a broad drinking window.

The 2017 Santenay 1er Cru Clos Rousseau offers up aromas of wild berries, cinnamon, peonies and herbs, followed by a medium-bodied, velvety palate that's framed by mouthwatering acids and powdery tannins. This is one of the cuvées that sees a deftly judged proportion of whole cluster.

The 2016 Santenay 1er Cru Clos Rousseau is matured in 35% to 40% new oak with around 20% whole-cluster fruit. It has a gorgeous bouquet with fresh blackberry and bilberry fruit, very well-integrated oak and engaging harmony. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin and good density, well balanced although there is clearly some new wood to be subsumed toward the finish. Give this three years in bottle.

The 2015 Santenay 1er Cru Clos Rousseau, matured in 30% new oak and with 25% whole bunch, has a charming bouquet with plenty of raspberry and crushed strawberry scents, more blue fruit emerging compared to the Cuvée S. The palate is medium-bodied with juicy sappy red and black fruit, a very subtle chalkiness towards the finish, but remaining very focused and tensile all the way through. This is an excellent wine from David Moreau - possibly his best in 2015.

The 2013 Santenay 1er Cru Clos Rousseau seemed a little flat on the nose but another sample showed much better with fresh strawberry and cranberry scents. The palate exerts a gentle but insistent grip: dark berry fruit, forest floor notes, broody in comparison to the Santenay Cuvée S but with a pleasant saline finish that just cuts away a little too quickly, unlike the 2012 last year that demonstrated more persistence in the mouth.
