DOMAINE CHEVROT MARANGES 1ER CRU "LA FUSSIERE" ROUGE
$111.00
PRODUCT INFORMATION
Premier Cru whites are rare in the Maranges appellation, but they produce great Burgundy Chardonnays of remarkable intensity and power.
This 1er Cru is ploughed entirely with a winch because of the steep slopes.
Ripe, fruity aromas of preserved lemon mingle with spicy rose. Very persistent, the wine is enhanced by a long, crystalline mineral aftertaste and a finish dominated by the sapid, smoky texture so distinctive of flint.
This Cru will stand the test of time but will do wonders now with foie gras or langoustines.

PALATE:

Intense, structured, and oily at will, it is built on a fruity of small red berries concentrated and ripe, which comes in counterpoint to an assertive structure and an uncompromising saline minerality. The fruitiness dominates the finish, with a persistent aromatic return. This wine is cut for prolonged ageing.Ā |
