Marsannay Longeroies 2023
Trade Tools
France / Burgundy
Marsannay is a large and diverse appellation spread across 3 communes at the far north sector of the Cote d'Or. Soils are mostly clay and small stones on slopes oriented to the east and southeast. This is the only Burgundian appellation permitted to produce and label wines in all three colors. In addition, Marsannay has campaigned for years to elevate as many as 14 terroirs to the status of Premier Cru. Despite a long history of viticulture, the appellation has never achieved the notoriety of the famous villages just to the South. This has allowed Marsannay to retain a reputation for great value even as quality has improved.
Harvest Note
2023 was a hot and dry growing season which was saved by significant rain in June. This allowed the vines to withstand summer heat and drought and led to ideal sanitary conditions and a modest yield yet concentrated vintage.
Tasting Note
This is a full-bodied dry red wine with moderate tannin, dark berry fruit enhanced with spice and mossy earth notes. The mouthfeel is soft and expansive over the long finish.
