Saintayme - Saint-Emilion Grand Cru 2023

Saintayme, the signature of the Durantou family

Denis Durantou passed away in 2020 and was one of the greatest winemakers of the right bank. His daughters are proudly taking over the estate and honoring this heritage. The Durantou family is also owner of Château l’Eglise Clinet in Pomerol. 
The vineyard of 9 ha is hold in one block. Located in Saint-Etienne-de-Lisse, it is a beautiful terroir made of clayey-gravelly soil. The Merlot profile is really reflected in the wines: nice fruitiness, the tannins are fleshy and silky at the same time.

The 2023 Vintage: 

"Humbled by violent Spring storms and a gloomy Summer, the 2023 berries waited for their landing in the vats to fully reveal
themselves and startle: complex and delicious aromatic cascades, obvious depth and elegance, making a vintage to be
remembered."
Noémie Durantou – Winemaker

"The 2023 vintage unveils wines with expressive black fruits in their stride, dynamic hearts filled with spices and smooth endings. A voluptuous vintage that invites one to embrace the pleasure of exploring the present and the promise of the future."
Constance Durantou – Co-Owner

The 2023 Saint-Robert Blanc has a struck matchstick-scented bouquet that just feels a bit predetermined. The palate is rounded in texture with tropical tones, just a bit too "sunny" for my liking, though I admire the stem ginger nose on the honeyed finish.

Very pretty and subtle aromas and flavors of plums, berries, light chocolate and some crushed stones. Medium-bodied with round and caressing tannins and a juicy, savory finish. Plush and delicious. 100% merlot. Drink or hold.

Die Merlots, aus denen der Saintem 2023 besteht, wurden zwischen dem 27. September und dem 4. Oktober geerntet. Sie befinden sich auf trockenerem Lehm und wurden daher als letzte geerntet. Das Bouquet ist strahlend mit einer präzisen fruchtigen Intensität. Letzteres wird auch am Gaumen unterstrichen. Die Symbiose zwischen den Tanninen und der Säurestruktur ist perfekt und der Wein wird dadurch mundwassernd, animierend!

The 2023 Saintayme is all Merlot brought up in 30% new oak. It’s a beautiful, ripe, textured, mineral-driven effort that has classic darker cherry and berry fruit, chalky minerality, subtle tobacco and herbal notes, and ripe yet certainly present tannins. It should be an outstanding wine.

Saintayme (Saint Émilion; 100% Merlot; aging in oak barrels, 30% of them new; 14.6% alcohol; tasted with Noemie Durantou at L’Eglise-Clinet). A lovely intense and rather herb and heather inflected dark berry and stone fruit. Briary fruits, fruits of the forest, plums, damsons, brambles. Quite vertical aromatically. Pure and intense on the palate too with an impressively glassy texture. Quite a tight and narrow frame. But with a good volume of tannin too. Nice walnutty notes on the finish. Excellent.

On the floral side of the style range, the wine also displays cocoa, cherry, herbs, spices, and walnuts. The palate is medium-bodied, with soft, silky and vibrant, red plums, cherries, and chocolate in the finish. This will be ready-to-go on release and age for more than a decade after that. The wine is produced from 100% Merlot, 14.6% ABV. Drink from 2026-2037. 90-92 Pts.

Medium intensity ruby, austere tannins on the opening, this has lemongrass and slate, juicy raspberry and grilled spice notes, slow and steady unrolling through the palate. Plenty to love.

The 2023 Saintayme, 100% Merlot, is a deep, serious wine. There's a real core of inner strength here. Dark red fruit, cedar, spice and dried flowers open with some coaxing, but the 2023 impresses most with its overall poise. Pretty floral overtones add brightness. The 2023 is a very fine Saintayme.

The 2023 Saintayme is pure Merlot, as usual, picked between September 27 and October 4 and matured in 30% new oak. This is quite lush on the nose with black plum and light blueberry scents and fine purity. It clocks in at 14.6% alcohol, but that is nicely disguised. The palate is medium-bodied with a slightly powdery texture, moderate weight and good balance. There’s perhaps slightly less complexity on the finish compared to the 2022 at this stage last year.

A 100% Merlot, the 2023 Saintayme evokes aromas of dark wild berries, mulberries, licorice and pencil lead, followed by a round, supple and juicy palate with a fleshy core of fruit and dense, rich tannins that assert themselves with a structured finish.

Lovely freshness and balance with berries, orange peel and crushed stone. It's medium-bodied with nice, round tannins. Pure merlot.
