Louis Jadot Domaine Gagey Santenay Clos des Gatsulards, Cote de Beaune, France 2022 Alain Michelot The first fully biodynamic vintageThe 2022 Santenay Clos des Gatsulards is a step up from the Clos de Malte in terms of precision and complexity; the fruit is comparatively darker here but with more clarity. The palate is medium bodied with pliant tannins. It is very silky in texture, not deep, but with a sweet core of red fruit and candied orange people towards the finish. This will be approachable, but it has the substance to age in bottle.
