Question

How many lieu-dits may producer Red/White Marsannay? Rosé?

Answer 1

78 for Red and White 48 for Rosé

Answer 2

Sits above Chenôve ,and other than La Chapitre is almost the only part of old Côtes Dijonnaise that still has vines. Top producers are Bouvier, Fournier and Pataille

Answer 3

Reds can be quite generous with modest structure but most ar elegant and perfumed. Not quite the same minerality power and weight as GEvrey-Chambertin Nuits Saint Georges would show more structure The hillside structure of the sites claiming rights to 1er cru can show all the power, finesse, elegance and longevity of its rivals to the south, so the best producers are worth sourching out, but in general even a village Vosne, or Gevery could outshine these premier Marsannay sites.

Answer 4

Climat of Marsannay La Cote and boarders Clos do Roy (of Chenôve) to it's north Is proposed as the banner 1er cru for blends from Bas des Longeroies, Dessus des Longeroies and Monchenevoy. Inlducing a few ha. of vines from Longeroies classified form Marsannay Rosé Stonier high slopes mixed with flat dark deep soil lends to a blend of styles. Minerally driven from clay and stone, flatter clay soils will add to more powerful styles. Bruno Clair Pataille Fourneir Mortet Bouvier

Answer 5

Marsannay Vineyards, both proposed as 1er Cru. Both on higher ground jsut to the west of Longeroies. They both flow downhill towards the Combes in the direction of Corcelles-Les-Monts where it becomes much colder. 1. En la Montagne is more complex, especially amongs its hidden parcesl among the trees above Longeroies 2. Les Es Chezots is the epitome of power vs elegance in style for the region, with the best producer, Sylvaine Pataille claiming "it has the same exposure as Estournelles St Jacques [L. jadot - Gev-Chamb]"

Answer 6

Pré means pasture nestles between Les Es Chezots (power and elegance) and En La Montagne (more complex with its nestled hidden parcels) A parcel on its north western edge is dedicated to Marsannay Rosé, completely surrounded by some of the best (premier cru proposed) sites - En La Montagne an Es Chezots Not listed as a proposed 1er cru but certainly shows the potential for quality. Jerome Galeyrand is an excellent producer.

Answer 7

These are not proposed as 1er cru for marsannay but show great potential for complexity and quality. They are both continuations of Longeroies ([1]Finottes is a continuation of Dessus des Longeroies, and [2] Ouzeloy is a continuation of Bas des Longeroies) Perhaps the flat cooler location precludes it from 1er cru proposals, but the quality potential is outstanding. Roty and Bouvier produce exceptional examples

Answer 8

Leading into a Combes that begins the western forests of Marsannay, the lieu0dits and parcels become much smaller, adder a greater sense of place and complexity to the wines. Les Vaudenelles is nestled in to the edge of the vineyards dedicated to Rosé, an as such these wines are more perfumed and less forceful than their counerparts. Bruno Clair is a top producer, and Les Vaudenelles is true to form. Much less powerful than his Longeroies, or Grasses Tétes bottlings.

Answer 9

"the charms to the priests" This runs from the top of the hill at Les Vaudenelles to it's north-west, down to LEs Boivins (another larger proposed 1er Cru) It includes the leieu-dits once known as Les Rosey. The vines run in the classic hillside aspect the Cote d'Or is known for. Top Producer is Sylvain Pataille

Answer 10

Jsut along the southern boarder of Marsannay leading into Couchey, it is a proposed 1er cru of Marsannay known for heavier in clay, tho jsut a thin layer over exposed bedrock. Creates heavier wines, with mroe structure and minerality It is a direct southern continuation of Clos des Jeu (proposed 1er cru) leading into the two combination-propositions of Couchey. Aux Genelières (to the south west) and Au Champs Salomon (champsalomon) to the south east.

Answer 11

This is proposed 1er cru of Marsannay AOC, it is jsut along the boarder of Marsannay-la-cote/couchey and is a proposed combination of 2 lieu-dits. [1]Champs Salomon an [2]En Clémongeot (1 ha of the 1.3 total ha. of En Clémongeot is owned by Sylvain Pataille) En Clémongeot is speckled with mini terraced vineyards with old stone walls demarcating the vines. The wines show a style nearing on neighboring Gevrey Chambertin, with ripe red and dark fruit, dense rich palate and mineral acidity Domaine Collotte is a top producer, as is Pataille

Answer 12

for the most part, the vineyeards of the Côte d'Or runs continuous north to south, but in the heart of Couchey, there is a lot of **conurbation**, or mixing of smaller villages and towns that break up this southward line of vineyards

Answer 13

A large piece of land consisting of 5 lieu-dits combined to make a more simplified proposed 1er cru. Combines [1] Le Désert [2] Le Moisereau [3] Au Quartier [4] La Plantelle [5] Champs Perdrix (22.65ha all its own, one of the largest lieu-dts of marsannay) Huguenot Pere and Château de Marsannay are top producers

Answer 14

Les Clos and the tiny Es Clos \*both in Couchey, produced as Marsannay AOC for R/W They are next to Le Village, another quality lieu-dits, not to be confused with Le Village from Chenôve, also for Marsannay AOC)

Answer 15

it is a simplified 1er cru proposition for Marsannay AOC that would combine 8 individual lieu dits from Couchey. The 8 lieu dits from are: [1] En Combreau [2] En La Malcuite [3] Au Ronsoy [4] Aux Grans Bandeaux [5] Au Champ Saint-Etienne [6] Aux Genelières [7] En Charrière [8] La Quencière
