Marsannay

Promoted to village status (for all three colours) in 1988, Marsannay is discussing adding some 1ers crus. The reds are affordable and accessible while the best wines have the structure and ageing potential to merit more interest. The rosé needs a year or two of bottle age, and requires food.
