Marsannay is the most northerly village in the Cotes de Nuits, just 6 km to the south-west of Dijon. Here starts the Route des Grands Crus which goes through the Côte d’ Or vineyards. It is unique in Burgundy for having AC status for red, white & rose wines. A pale yellow colour leads to a nose of white flowers & lime blossom. A harmonious & well-balanced wine, vinified without oak for a fresher character. A subtle wine with finesse & a good length. It is delicious while still young but a few years of cellaring will make it even more appealing.
