2*Coup de Coeur

Hachette

"Grégory Patriat has produced a stunning Maranges from start to finish. The color is bright and intense, the nose refined and racy, with notes of blackcurrant, kirsch-infused cherry, and peony. The palate is full-bodied, dense, and very long, supported by silky, refined tannins that reinforce its already very appealing character. A first growth of great elegance, which can be enjoyed both young and after aging." (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2018)
