The 2017 Marsannay is a beauty, bursting with expressive aromas of rose petals, raspberries and blood orange. Medium to full-bodied, supple and perfumed, its satiny attack segues into an ample, succulent core that's framed by melting tannins. Already hard to resist, this will drink well on release.
