Burgundy Marchand-Tawse

Our committee's review

Originally from Quebec, Pascal Marchand found in Burgundy a true home for his passion and talent. After 15 years as the craftsman behind Clos des Epeneaux, an early pioneer of organic and biodynamic farming, then estate manager at Domaine de la Vougeraie, he launched his own négociant house in Nuits-Saint-Georges in 2006, together with Canadian partner Moray Tawse. They later added 8 hectares of their own vineyards.

This high-precision venture, awarded 1 star in the prestigious French wine guide RVF, now offers a tightly focused range of wines, all farmed organically.

A fascinating and intimate take on Burgundy, ready to discover through two of its most iconic appellations.

The 2023 Meursault White shows beautiful ripeness, opening with delicate floral aromas that give way to a refined, luxurious touch of oak, offering subtle toasted and grilled nuances. On the palate, it’s broad and generous, striking a fine balance between ripeness and freshness. The aging process—currently still noticeable—will integrate beautifully with time. A little more patience will be rewarded, as this is a precise, pure, and finely crafted wine. Rated 93/100 by the Selection Committee.

Elegant in both texture and aromatic expression, the 2022 Vosne-Romanée Red is built for long aging, yet it already charms in its youth with its delicate, fresh character. The nose is remarkably refined, revealing a graceful infusion of Pinot Noir, where the oak aging—used with restraint—beautifully respects the wine’s aromatic profile. Ripe and vibrant, it leans into raspberry notes with clarity and finesse. On the palate, it’s juicy and understated, with well-integrated oak, fine bitters, and a lovely underlying tension. A superb wine best enjoyed starting in 2026. Rated 93/100 by the Selection Committee.
