✨ Technical Specifications
In the historic cellars of Château de Marsannay, the ancient Burgundian tradition of artisanal distillation is preserved through their '10 Ans d'Age' eau-de-vie. Typically crafted as a Marc de Bourgogne from the pomace of Pinot Noir grapes, or as a Fine de Bourgogne from high-quality wine lees, this spirit represents a decade of patient maturation. Distilled in traditional copper stills, the young spirit is laid to rest in French oak casks for at least ten years. Over this decade-long slumber in the estate's cool cellars, the fiery spirit mellows, absorbing rich amber hues, woody tannins, and complex aromas of dried stone fruits, toasted nuts, honey, and sweet spices, offering a profound reflection of Burgundy's ancestral craftsmanship.
