One of the twelve 1er Crus in Santenay, Les Gravieres is considered the top or one of the top climats within the appellation. This plot is located at the Northern end of the vineyard right next to Clos Tavannes, Les Gravieres has a steep slope and is noted for having grey clay soil which helps to keep vines from getting too stressed during drought. The elegant nose gives up dark scents of ripe and wonderfully layered black cherry, plum, violet and warm earth. There are appealing spice hints on the rich and solidly concentrated flavors that possess excellent volume while delivering fine length on the more generous if less precise finish. This is very much worth considering. Read Less

In the shadow of the famous Towers of San Gimignano, Tuscan estate Le Rote makes a wonderfully charismatic Chianti Colli Senesi from 100% Sangiovese.

Smooth, black-cherry and sweet tobacco linger on a faint, pleasant finish that is touched off by just the right hint of oak. Lovely. Read Less
