Marsannay La Plantelle 2021, Vigne de l’Hospital de Dijon, Château de Marsannay – Set of 6

          – Either the bottle at 30€ instead of 35€ –

A great introduction to the Côte de Nuits !

This vineyard is part of the “Champs Perdrix” climat in the commune of Couchey.  Château de Marsannay operates this vineyard belonging to the Dijon Hospital.  Despite the ups and downs of the 2021 vintage, this talented estate has succeeded in producing a very pretty wine whose color, though shallow, is a luminous ruby. The nose evokes aromas of cherries, blackcurrants and red berries mixed with orange peel and floral notes of violets and rose petals. On the palate, the attack is lively but delicate, with good structure, fine tannins and a fruity, slightly peppery finish.

Tasting:

This delicate wine is already very enjoyable but can also be kept for another 4 or 5 years.
