Tasting notes
Marsannay Rosé Bruno Clair is a standout in Burgundy, you know? Made from 100% Pinot Noir, it offers a refined taste that's hard to resist. The 2009 vintage, with its aging, has further deepened in complexity. Bruno Clair is known for producing quality wines, and this Marsannay Rosé lives up to that reputation.
In Volume 31 of 'Drops of God', Laurent tries this wine blind at a restaurant in Paris' Latin Quarter, and he was quite taken by surprise. You could see him being drawn into the allure of the wine the moment he tasted it. It was like capturing the essence of Burgundy itself, rich and sophisticated.
When you pour it, you'll notice a garnet hue with a slight brick tint, indicating its maturity. The aroma is complex, with hints of dry herbs, sous-bois, and a touch of tea. On the palate, there's an abundant fruitiness first, followed by the lively acidity typical of Pinot Noir. The tannins are velvety, providing a solid structure. The finish is long, leaving a rich aftertaste that lingers.
This wine is elegant and complex, perfect for savoring. Serve it slightly chilled to really bring out its best qualities.
