Tasting notes
This wine captivates through its expressive nose of red and black berries. Its palate, marked by spices and notes of black pepper, is supported by a precise tannic structure. A concentrated wine, both intense and structured.
The Vineyard
On the border between the Côte-d’Or and the Saône-et-Loire, the “En Goty” Climat reveals a deep brown soil composed of calcareous marl. Planted between 1975 and 1985, this southeast-facing plot basks in generous sunlight.
Its rich and structuring terroir gives birth to a great wine that combines suppleness and intensity, an embodiment of red Maranges.
The Vintage
2022 is synonymous with a vintage of great quality and the return of satisfying volumes.
After a mild and dry winter, the growing season arrived early. Spared by the April frost, the warm spring accelerated plant growth, favoring early flowering and optimal fruit set. After particularly dry spells during winter and spring, late June rains were timely. A hot, dry and at times scorching summer allowed for a good ripening, although in places the vines did react to hydric stress.
Mid-August rainfall will be decisive by constant sunshine until the harvests, which started on 25th August in the Côte de Beaune and 2nd September in the Côte de Nuits.
