Premier Cru red Burgundy from a family that's been farming these slopes since 1679. That's not a heritage story - that's conection to the land. Le Passe-Temps sits on a sun-drenched mid-slope in Santenay, neighbouring some of the appellation's most celebrated sites, on limestone-marl soils that produce Pinot Noir of real structure and mineral character. This is the good stuff!

Why do we love this wine?
François Lequin tends these vines with the same obsessive care applied to every wine in the range - and the 2023 vintage, with its beautiful balance of ripeness and tension, has given him exceptional raw material to work with. In the glass it's everything you want from Premier Cru Burgundy - red cherry, raspberry and a lifted earthiness on the nose, with leather and mineral complexity building underneath. The palate is structured and refined, with fine tannins, a sappy red fruit core and a long, precise finish that rewards patience both in the cellar and in the glass. Drink it now with a little air and something worthy alongside it. Or put it down for five years and watch it become something even more compelling. Genuine Premier Cru Burgundy from one of Santenay's most trusted names. At this price, it's a seriously exciting opportunity.
