2017 Domaine Louis Jadot Marsannay Clos du Roy
From: Marsannay, Burgundy, FranceVarietal: Pinot Noir Taste & Critical Acclaim: A well-integrated assortment of red fruits (morello cherry and strawberry), black fruits (blackberry, black currant, plum skin), and crushed violet evolve and blossom under a toasty, generous exterior. The mid-palate keeps to vibrant, mineral, red-fruited tones and finishes with length and persistence. This is a deliciously crowd-pleasing Marsannay Clos du Roy, and we highly recommend keeping a few bottles on hand for personal consumption and sharing in groups with mixed palates; this will make everyone happy.
