Goedhuis, September 2022
Made from grapes grown on one of the family’s hillside vineyards, the Bourgogne Derrière Sazenay is another triumph from Vincent Charton. Always juicy, always luscious, the 2020 has a crisp-fruited palate of fresh strawberries and cherries, which are gently ushered to the finish by firm tannins and bright acidity. A delightful companion for your casserole of choice.

Decanter, June 2023, Score: 93
Vincent and Jean-Pierre's estate includes two fine Bourgogne Rouges, and this one is from the higher slopes on calcareous marl and limestone. Deep, dark, rich and appealing on both nose and palate. Soft, plush fruit character. Dark berry and cherry, with a touch of damson fruit as well. Very nicely balanced with the oak influence (12 months' maturation, 15% new). Fresh and long on the finish. Drink 2023- 2025

Region
Mercurey
Located in the heart of the Cote Chalonnaise, Mercurey has the largest area under vine and produces the most structured wines in the district. A little white is produced, but it is robust earthy reds from Pinot Noir grown on limestone and marl soil that are most interesting. In the 16th Century Henri IV's lover Gabrielle d'Estrees was a fan, although the King himself preferred neighbouring Givry.
