Collotte Marsannay 'Les Grasses Tetes' Rouge 2023

From two parcels of old vines; one based on Crinoidal limestone (known in France as Calcaire à Entroques), the other Comblanchien. This wine is very perfumed and pure with real depth, yet showing a lovely minerality and elegance, finishing with great length and very fine tannins.

From two parcels of old vines; one based on Crinoidal limestone (known in France as Calcaire à Entroques), the other Comblanchien. Isabelle Collotte describes this terrior as having “blig clay and big rocks”, despite that we find this cuvee of Marsannay to be the cuvee with best balance and elegance and particularly so in 2023. This wine is very perfumed and pure with real depth, yet showing a lovely minerality and elegance, finishing with great length and very fine tannins. Bill Nanson, Burgundy Report, January 2025
