Marsannay, Blanc, Cuvée Source des Roches, 2018
justerini & brooks tasting note
Lovely crisp orchard fruit, ripe flavours but with a more digest and tense character than the regular Marsannay, distinctive notes of limestone, crushed rocks and mineral make for a refreshing, fine and savoury finish. A selection of parcels from the higher slopes of Marsannay where the soils are poor and extremely stony. A blend of 85% Chardonnay and 15% Pinot Blanc age in a mixture of tank and oak foudres.

The 2018 Marsannay "Source des Roches" Blanc has an attractive bouquet of white flowers, honeysuckle and light rosewater aromas. The pretty palate offers fine acidity, fresh citric fruit and a lightly spicy finish.
