Boujee WOTW: Rodolphe Demougeot Santeney Comme Dessus 2024
€312,00
€219,00
Last week we featured part one of Rodolphe Demougeot with his Hautes-Cotes de Beaune, this week we are rolling out a Village wine and one of my fave under the radar Burgundy appellations.
Santenay Comme Dessus is made the same way as all his wines (bio-dynamic, de-stemmed, old oak, hand made etc). What's special here is the appellation: Santenay. This is right down the bottom of Cote de Nuits, a stone's throw from Chassagne Montracchet - and in truth is seems closer to a Beaune red. The lieu dit 'Comme Dessus' is right next door to a Premier Cru vineyard, this punches way, WAY above its weight.
There are 10 x 6-Packs, this wine is €312 RRP but we are doing 30% OFF €219 IN THE 6-PACK. This is is a banging, banging wine. Broad but elegant, silky tannins, epic fresh acidity and pure fruit, its unmissable.

WINE ANALYSIS

Demougeot’s Pommard has a good balance of characteristics drawn from two very different village parcels. A blend of unusual names, La Rue au Porc and En Boeuf—in English they could be loosely translated as The Pork Street and Beef—are vineyards apparently named to stimulate the appetite, or not… La Rue au Porc was planted in 1948 and is composed of deep clay and limestone rock topsoil—the muscle and weight of the wine. En Boeuf is located in the Grande Combe, a somewhat narrow valley far to the west of the appellation on the north hill facing south on a steep slope of shallow rocky topsoil, close to forests, and in the direct path of colder winds from the countryside to the west, which presents an almost complete contrast to La Rue au Porc. Planted in 1979, the position of these vines brings the balance of mineral, tension, cut and lift, to compliment the richer fruit and fuller body from En Boeuf. THE SOURCE
