Clos Marey-Monge 75 Rangs 2017
-
The 75 rows of the eponymous cuvée produce a ruby-colored Pinot Noir praised to bring skeleton to our Clos Marey-Monge Monopole blend. Both the nose and palate display aromas of black and red fruit, such as frutti di bosco, alongside wild notes of musk and smokle creating a distinctive and elegant animality. With a salty, mineral finish, our 75 Rangs 2017 is a Pinot Noir made for aging.
