✨ Technical Specifications
The 'du Château' Pinot Noir from Château de Marsannay is a refined expression of the estate's diverse terroirs in the Côte de Nuits. Sourced from carefully selected estate parcels, this wine captures the vibrant energy and classic structure of Burgundian Pinot Noir. The vines thrive on the region's signature limestone and clay soils, which impart a distinct mineral tension and elegant red-fruit character. Historically, Marsannay has been known as the golden gate to the Côte de Nuits, celebrated for its diverse microclimates. In the cellar, the grapes undergo traditional fermentation with gentle extraction, followed by aging in French oak barrels to harmonize the bright cherry and raspberry notes with subtle spice and earthy undertones, reflecting the authentic heritage of the estate.
