Château de Marsannay
Marsannay, Clos de Jeu, 2022
justerini & brooks tasting note
A typically floral, bright and red fruited Clos de Jeu that is lithe, caressing and full of aromatic charm. Silky and stylish, with a seductive texture and polished tannins, this comes from a superb parcel, sitting just above the Chateau planted on poor, hard soils that are rich in limestone. The cuvee is composed of two plots: the older, with 60-year-old vines, is whole bunch fermented, while the younger plot, at 25 years old, is destemmed.

90-92/100William Kelley,Robert Parker Wine Advocate
Rich and ripe, the 2022 Marsannay Clos de Jeu delivers notes of minty cherries, berries and spices deftly framed by new oak. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and fleshy, with attractive depth and plenitude, it concludes with an expansive finish.
