Originating from a terroir rich in limestone and marl, the 2020 red Marsannay Clos du Roy is a candidate for 1er cru status in the next classification. This wine delivers a mature and refined expression of Pinot Noir, characterized by an infused, noble, and fruity style. The purity of this cuvée is unmistakable, expressing a red fruit coulis, morello cherry, with a particularly successful peppery and woody touch. Its rich structure offers a dense juice, velvety tannins, and an oakiness that perfectly complements the wine's body. This is a grand cuvée from Marsannay in a great vintage, with a potential to age beautifully for over 10 years. A favorite of the Committee, rated 94/100. |
