2022 Marthe Henry, Santenay Le Bievaux MG

The 2022 Marthe Henry Santenay Le Bievaux is an elegant, terroir-driven white Burgundy that combines finesse, depth, and a distinctly mineral profile. Sourced from one of Santenay’s more expressive sites, it offers a refined take on the appellation with subtle spice and stone fruit character, making it a compelling choice for lovers of nuanced Côte de Beaune whites.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, this wine shows a poised, luminous appearance that hints at its freshness and precision. The nose opens with delicate spice alongside ripe stone fruit aromas, leading into a palate that is balanced and layered, with a silky texture that gently coats the mouth. As it unfolds, the wine becomes increasingly mineral and focused, finishing with impressive persistence and a clean, fresh edge. Its structure suggests good short- to medium-term cellaring, during which the wine can gain additional complexity while maintaining its elegant core.

Production
Le Bievaux is a respected Santenay lieu-dit in Burgundy, where the climate and soils lend themselves to wines with both richness and tension. Marthe Henry’s 2022 bottling reflects a careful, site-sensitive approach that emphasizes freshness, texture, and purity of expression. The wine is likely made to preserve the character of the terroir, with vinification aimed at highlighting balance and finesse rather than overt oak or power.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with refined dishes such as roast chicken, veal with cream sauce, seared scallops, lobster, or mushroom risotto. It should be served lightly chilled, ideally around 10-12°C, to best showcase its aromatic detail and mineral finish. Decanting is generally not necessary, though a brief airing may help it open if served young.
