First encounter with this producer, I'd be curious to find out if there is any relation to the Clair-dau estate/Bruno Clair, as Bruno Clair and this family both make clos genet from adjacent parcels. A combination of Santanay and maranges, this is one of the freshest, juiciest burgundies I've tasted recently in the under $30 zone. Mostly destemmed delicious pinosity. Find this wine.
