| Over het wijnhuis | Saintem, ook bekend als Saintayme, is gevestigd in Saint-Étienne-de-Lisse vlakbij het idyllische wijndorp Saint-Émilion aan de rechteroever van Bordeaux. Het château heeft vooral naam gemaakt dankzij zijn eigenaar, Denis Durantou, die tevens eigenaar was van één van de beste wijnhuizen uit AOC Pomerol: Château L’Eglise-Clinet. |

| Awards | "The 2020 Saintayme is 100% Merlot, harvested between the 28th and the 30th of September. It has an alcohol of 14.5% and is aging in French oak barrels, 30% new. Deep purple-black colored, it needs a little coaxing to unlock scents of tar, forest floor and aniseed, over a core of baked black plums, blackberry pie and chocolate-covered cherries, plus a touch of dried mint. The full-bodied palate is densely packed with muscular black fruits and loads of earthy accents, framed by firm, rounded tannins and just enough freshness, finishing on a lingering minty note. 63,000 bottles are expected to be made." - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate "A gorgeous red with so much black fruit and salty, mineral character. It’s medium-to full-bodied with creamy, polished tannins and a long finish. The precision and fine texture is impressive. One of the best I have had for a while." - James Suckling "100% Merlot. Ripe and round, the red-berry fruit slightly obscured by the toasted oak at present. Chewy and dry on the finish but the fruit is there and tannins smooth. Early drinking pleasure when the oak settles. (JL)" - Jancis Robinson "The 2020 Saintayme is every bit as charming as it was en primeur. Racy and layered in the glass, this mid-weight Saint-Émilion is quite open and accessible today. Crushed red berry fruit, spice, white pepper, rose petal and a touch of new oak are all nicely put together. I would give this a few years to come together, as the tannins are a bit nervy today. There's terrific energy and vibrancy here. Pretty floral accents liven up the finish." - Vinous "Perfumed, with gorgeous damson, blackcurrant and creamy milk chocolate. Smooth and supple, there is a silky edge to the tannins. Round and full in the mouth - a juicy succulence - allied to bitter tangy aspects, spice and dark chocolate edging. Sleek, sophisticated and upfront, yet at the same time there is a refreshing, cool and minty herbaceousness. Precise and streamlined." - Decanter |
