Jean-Claude Boisset – Passetemps 2016 – Santenay, 1er Cru

The nose is elegant and fruity. The wine needs to be decanted. It reveals notes of nectarine, quince and small notes of crunchy pear associated with a touch of kumquat as well as a discreet hint of citrus and beeswax. The palate is fruity, well-balanced, racy and offers a good definition, a fine acid frame as well as a small minerality. On the palate this wine expresses fleshy peach / nectarine, citrus and small notes of kumquat combined with a discreet hint of juicy mirabelle plum as well as a discreet hint of quince and an imperceptible hint of beeswax. Good length.
