Notes:
Once again there is a highly attractive floral quality to the softly spicy if distinctly earthy nose that features mostly notes of dark currant and exotic tea. There is good underlying tension to the well-detailed medium weight flavors that are shaped by relatively fine-grained tannins on the chiseled and sneaky long finish that is akin to rolling tiny pebbles around in the mouth. This decidedly firm effort is an excellent example of the vineyard though one that will need all of a decade to arrive at its apogee. Burghound 91-93 Top Value!
The 2022 Marsonnoy Clos du Roy has a very well-defined bouquet with block cherries and wild strawberries, hints of inkwell and brine joining the chorus line with time. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grain tannins, fout and fresh, with a very elegant, poised finish. About as good a Marsannay as you will find in this vintage. Neal Martin 92-94
