justerini & brooks tasting note

Very fine purity on the nose. On the palate this combines fine minerals for structure with juicy pure red fruit, cherry, and a touch of rosehip. A jewel-like Maranges with a bone china structure and a long, lifted finish. 2021 in a glass. This excellent cuvée hails from 7 different parcels in La Fussière, with vines aged between 10 and 85 years old, energy coming from the former, complexity from the latter. Fermented with no whole bunches in 2021, reared in 25% new oak barrels.

critic reviews

91-93/100Neal Martin,Vinous

The 2021 Maranges La Fussières 1er Cru Rouge was very complex to pick, the 5.5-hectares with ten different types of ripening depending on vine age and terroirs. It has a very mineral-driven bouquet, beautifully defined with more black fruit than the Clos de la Boutière. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp red fruit, a little leafy in style and sapid with a slightly peppery finish that might fool you into thinking there were stems in the blend (when in fact, they were too green to include this year).
