Description: | 93 JS. The vineyard of "The Golden Gate of the Côte de Nuits" covers the towns of Chenove, Marsannay-la-Côte and Couchey. This AOC is based on soils of great complexity of clay-limestone Middle Jurassic type. The grapes of this cuvĂ©e come exclusively from the climate "La Bretignière" located in the town of Couchey a few hundred meters from the Fixin appellation. This small plot is located at the bottom of the hill with a full-east exposure and on a predominantly limestone soil. There are traces of the name "La Bretignière" (from the old French Breton / Brecton = hawk) in the 1700s, it refers to the presence of a falconry where birds of prey were raised for hunting. It was attached to a manor house. This Marsannay, with an intense ruby color, develops a bouquet of blueberries and strawberries, as well as some notes of sweet spices and subtly smoky notes. The palate is rich and powerful and reveals a salivating finish. |
