Marsannay AOC is the most
recent addition to the Côte de Nuits; hitherto I’ve only known it for red wines.
Mid yellow, green
highlights. Rich melon nose, not noticeably oaky (but surely has seen some time
in barrel), tight mid-palate; in as much as there is a fruit character it’s
sour, like greengages, the bitter suggestion of peel. Too much young character
for me, maybe in 5 years? I’d rather rate it then. Let it be said, good
texture, and good value at £15.
