Last September, Jasper Morris, Master of Wine and founder of Insideburgundy.com<\/a>, visited our estate. He met with our winemaker, and together they tasted our beautiful 2017 vintages. Here are his comments on our Clos Marey-Monge wines.<\/p>\n

Clos Marey-Monge \u201cMicault\u201d 2017<\/em>: 2 stars \u2013 87 points<\/strong><\/h5>\n

\u201cThis plot is nearest the river, on alluvial soil. The vines are exceptionally vigorous, so have been cordon pruned and deprived of fertiliser. The wine has a light if slightly sombre colour. The nose offers a pretty, cherry-scented perfume. There is some elegance to the fruit, more weight behind, a few tannins emerge, correct acidity, a little bit of heat.\u201d<\/p>\n

Clos Marey-Monge \u201cLes Paules\u201d 2017<\/em>: 3 stars \u2013 88 points<\/strong><\/h5>\n

\u201cA blend of the 2001 and 1942 plantings. Rich concentrated purple and much more evidently powerful Pommard nose compared to the Micault cuv\u00e9e. While the wood is clearly present (40% new), the power of the fruit can clearly support it. This has broad shoulders and purple fruit with some plums.\u201d<\/p>\n

Clos Marey-Monge \u201cChantrerie\u201d 2017<\/em>: 3 stars \u2013 89 points<\/strong><\/h5>\n

\u201cA leading cuvee grown on complex clays, a mixture of old and young vines, with 55% new wood. Slightly the deepest and darkest to date with an inky weight to the fruit on the nose. Pommard plus. Very backward in one sense though the ink shows a little post bottling \u2018bottle shock\u2019, all a bit mixed at the moment. I doubt if this sample properly represents the wine.\u201d<\/p>\n

Clos Marey-Monge \u201c75 Rangs\u201d 2017<\/em>: 3 stars \u2013 90 points<\/strong><\/h5>\n

\u201cPlanted 1962 always the most saline. No topsoil here. Gravels instead, stones and clay then compact limestone gravels. Fine deep dark colour. The nose has a plummy richness, a little touch of salt, not quite the uber classic Pommard sense which the Grands Champs bottling delivers. 45% new wood shows only in a trace of vanilla but not much more. This has breadth and depth as well as the iodine touch, which apparently always shows up even during fermentation. Here it is most evident at the finish, but marries in well.\u201d<\/p>\n

Clos Marey-Monge \u201cGrands Champs\u201d 2017<\/em>: 4 stars \u2013 91 points<\/strong><\/h5>\n

\u201cAnother very dense colour, the oak (a balanced 20% here) is already well integrated. This is classic Pommard, sturdy for sure, with an excellent tannic structure, but huge weight of fruit, easily enough for the structure. A nice touch of wood at the back adds distinction to the finish. Good length.\u201d<\/p>\n

Clos Marey-Monge Monopole 2017<\/em>: 4 stars \u2013 91 points<\/strong><\/h5>\n

\u201cThis is the principal wine produced, being a blend which contains wine from all of the separate plots, including Simone. Full bright red purple, with plenty of energy to the nose, dark fruit, this appears very complete from the first nose. Everything is in balance, showing quite a lot of wood, but well assembled, a little bit if heat from the alcohol but this may be a passing phase, soft rich and compelling.\u201d<\/p>\n
