Son of Yves and nephew of Vincent, Benoit Girardin has steadily carved out his own reputation and is already turning heads in the Parisian restaurant scene. 2023 was a standout vintage for Girardin, delivering both quantity and quality. "From a young-vine parcel first produced in 2020, this Santenay is fresh and precise. The nose offers floral notes with bursts of lime and grapefruit. The interplay of clay soils at the bottom and limestone at the top gives the wine a pleasant minerality and energy, complemented by a clean, lime-tinged finish." Our note While white yields were typical, the reds saw an unprecedented abundance. The whites were harvested first, beginning on September 7th, with the reds following on September 10th. Whites show a harmonious balance between sugar and acidity, with greater maturity and slightly softer acidity compared to 2022. The reds are all 100% destemmed with no fining or filtration, while the whites retain purity and definition with meticulous filtration.
