Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru En Orveaux 2022
Marsannay Blanc 2023
A Historic Estate with an Outstanding Legacy
Château de Marsannay embodies the elegance and authenticity of Burgundy’s finest wines. Located at the gateway to the Côte de Nuits, it benefits from a mosaic of exceptional terroirs. The vineyard spans 34 hectares and includes plots in prestigious appellations such as Chambertin, Ruchottes-Chambertin, Clos de Vougeot, and Échezeaux. Its strategic location allows for the exploitation of varied soils and exposures, ensuring an unparalleled aromatic richness in its wines.
Meticulous Winemaking that Honors the Terroir
Viticulture at the estate follows a sustainable approach, free from herbicides and chemical fertilizers, preserving the natural balance of the soils. Hand-harvesting ensures rigorous grape selection. In the cellar, winemaking is conducted with the utmost precision. Fermentation relies on native yeasts, and oak barrel aging is carefully managed to enhance rather than overshadow the fruit. Each cuvée is crafted to faithfully reflect the identity of its specific terroir.
Balanced and Expressive Wines
The red wines from Château de Marsannay exhibit remarkable structure and depth, evolving beautifully over time. Pinot Noir reveals notes of red fruits, spices, and subtle earthy undertones, supported by fine, elegant tannins. The white wines, made from Chardonnay, showcase pronounced minerality and a broad aromatic palette ranging from citrus to dried fruits. Their freshness and lively acidity grant them excellent aging potential.
A Strong Commitment to Quality
Since its acquisition by Olivier Halley in 2012, the estate has undergone significant investments aimed at elevating each vintage. The estate is currently transitioning to organic farming, underscoring its commitment to producing wines that are ever more respectful of their environment. The estate’s philosophy balances tradition with innovation, allowing for technical precision while preserving the pure expression of the terroir.
A Must-Visit Destination for Burgundy Enthusiasts
