Maranges La Fussiere Rouge Premier Cru•2023

Silky yet firmly structured, the 2023 Domaine Bachelet-Monnot Maranges La Fussière 1er Cru Rouge layers black cherry and ripe raspberry fruit with hints of spice and stone. The palate feels airy and precise despite its depth, with fine, chiselled tannins giving a long, assured finish that shows more finesse than is usual for Maranges. This is a quietly confident, characterful Burgundy that should gain complexity with a few years in bottle.
