Marsannay clos du Roy 2010

Red Wine / France / Burgundy / AOC Marsannay / 14% vol.

This 2010 Marsannay Clos du Roy from Sylvain Pataille is a Pinot Noir with a story to tell. Aged for over a decade, it has evolved from its youthful vibrancy to a stage of captivating complexity. Imagine a wine where the initial burst of red fruit has softened, giving way to hints of earth, spice, and perhaps even a touch of leather. The tannins, once bright and gripping, are now beautifully integrated, offering a smooth and elegant mouthfeel.

On the nose, expect a captivating interplay of aromas. Hints of cherry and plum might linger, intertwined with notes of dried herbs, forest floor, and a touch of truffle. Pair it with a dish of equal stature, perhaps roasted duck or earthy mushrooms.
