Santenots du Milieu the best of the six lieu-dits of the overarching vineyard, Santenots. It’s right in the heart of the vineyard, 8ha in total. The vineyard and all its lieu-dit are located in Meursault but are allowed to be labeled as Volnay. The vineyard is rich in clay, more so than is typical in Volnay, so in the diaspora that is Volnay, the wines do come across full with rich textures when compared to other Volnay.
Mikulski owns .9ha in the vineyard with vines planted in 1947 and 1976.
Burghound: 91 Points
An exuberantly fresh nose is comprised by ample spice and floral nuances that add breadth to the ripe red pinot fruit aromas. There is better volume and more obvious power to the decidedly punchy and stony flavors that display very fine length on the robust, compact and moderately austere finale that is decidedly firmer. Like all competent examples of Santenots, this is a wine that's going to require at least moderate patience.
