Nose: rose petals, spices, mature strawberry, cherry Notes: tasted in Beaune. My second time drinking this bottle within 2 months and this one is showing much better than the one. Pataille is a maker that can defy appellations, making what it seems to be a lesser appellation into something that is much more complicated and fine than the original appellation. This has an excellent nose and almost certain that this is probably the best Marsannay there is available. Still in its youth and we can start enjoying this in 2-3 years. Drink: 2027+ Rating: 91

Nose: red cherry, rose, red fruits Notes: very elegant and gentle red. This Marssany is quite promising as it boasts a good integration of floral notes and red fruits. Probably not a surprising thing for the vintage but it is ready and drinking perfectly now. Being well known for its natural winemaking approach I see plenty of talent here from this wonderful bottle of Clos du Roy. This probably is one of the better bottles I've had from this appellation.

Nose rather muted but more open on the taste which opens with ripe cherries and white pepper and also beginning to show some earthy elements. In a good space now but would benefit from 2-3 years additional cellaring.

At the beginning of its drinking window. This could hold its own with a lot of village wines from farther south in the cote de nuits, so a good value in that sense. But I also dont feel like there is anything particularly special about this wine.

Great Marsannay. Nose with ripe black fruit and some spices. Lovely fruitdriven palate with enough grip and depth. Long and fruity finish. mmm
