2021 Domaine Collotte Marsannay Vieilles Vignes, Cote de Nuits, France
$37.00
The Marsannay " Vieilles Vignes " is the result of a blend of different terroirs of the Marsannay appellation. The grapes come from vines that are over 40 years old. The grapes are harvested by hand and sorted on arrival at the vat room. The grapes are then 100% de-stemmed before being put into vats. After a pre-fermentation cold maceration of 4 to 5 days, reheating the vat activates the work of the indigenous yeasts for gentle alcoholic fermentation. Most of the wine is pumped over during fermentation to preserve the fruit and the freshness of the grape variety. 50% in vats and 50% in barrels. 10 months of maturation.
Wine style :
the nose presents aromas of red fruit jam (strawberries, raspberries), and a light vanilla note. The mouth is structured and persistent, with sustained fruity aromas. Ageing potential: 5 or even 7 years depending on the vintage.
