Enticing hints of leather and charred earth point to the graceful development of this library release. A testament to the longevity and quality of wines from Les Longeroies, one of Marsannay's top vineyard sites, this supple red balances mouthwatering raspberry and red-plum flavors against subtle layers of earth and animal. Soft tannins and lifting acidity make the wine lovely now but it should hold well through 2027.

Sweet spice and vanilla notes augment the black cherry and black currant fruit in this powerful yet polished red. Flashes of tar and iron lend a brooding aspect as this winds down on the dusty finish. Best from 2021 through 2032. 50 cases imported.
