Tasting notes
Our Marsannay 2015 has an intense and shining colour. On the nose, notes of red berries and black fruits, such as blackberry and cherry appear. The mouth is round and the tannins are silky. Aromas of undergrowth blend with black currant. A gourmet and fresh wine
Description
Marsannay is the village which marks the northern gateway to the Cote d'Or on leaving Dijon, the capital of Burgundy and home to the Ducs de Bourgogne. This village marks the beginning of the Route des Grands Crus which follows the N6 highway through the Cote d'Or. Wines from Marsannay are generally lively and robust; characteristics that come from the rich iron soil. Marsannay received its Appellation Contrôlée as recently as 1987 in recognition of the consistently high quality of its wine.
