Domaine Collotte Marsannay Blanc 2023

Shows excellent ripeness and generosity with complex barrel ferment characters and wonderful finesse and detail on the palate. Brilliant. Comes from 20-40+ year vines in 3 different terroirs of Les Etalles, En Blungey and Le Poiset and is raised 50% in oak barrels (10% new) and 50% in stainless steel. It has ripe and citrusy aromas with hints of peach skin and dried apricot. The palate has surprising richness and generosity opening with touches of dried mango and pear skin, fine acidity with long fresh finish.

“That’s got both volume and a nicely cushioned texture. Hmm, that melts nicely over the palate – many Marsannay white I fund a little rich but this is on the good side of generous and drinks really well – not a bit heavy – weighty but not heavy..” Bill Nanson, Burgundy Report, February 2025
