2*Coup de Coeur

Hachette

“Grégory Patriat has crafted a Maranges that is stunning from start to finish. The color is brilliant and intense; the nose is refined and distinguished, with notes of blackcurrant, kirsch-infused cherry, and peony; the palate is full-bodied, dense, and very long, supported by silky, refined tannins that enhance its already very appealing character. A 1er cru of great elegance, which can be enjoyed both young and after aging.” (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2018)
