CLOS LA MARCHE MONOPOLE is a red wine from a 3.48 hectare monopole with south-east exposure.
This Climat of Burgundy owes its name to the limestone slab, raised by tectonic plate movements, on which it is situated. The soil, hard and barely 30 centimetres deep, consists of 50 ares of marl, at the top of the Clos.
A 100% Pinot Noir grape variety, CLOS LA MARCHE MONOPOLE is made from 60-year-old vines on almost 2 hectares of the plot and young vines replanted on the remaining 1.5 hectares.
This Climat produces wines of great finesse and elegance.
Made from 100% Pinot Noir grapes, the grapes are handpicked and vinification is carried out with 40% whole clusters.
The maceration lasts between 13 and 14 days, during which 4 to 6 manual punch-downs and some pump-overs are performed.
The 100% natural fermentation occurs using indigenous yeasts from our terroirs.
The aging, which takes place in underground cellars, lasts between 12 and 13 months. It is conducted in French oak barrels, 25% of which are new, sourced from 4 complementary coopers.
The 2020 vintage received a score of 93/100 from the magazine Revue des Vins de France.
Our CLOS LA MARCHE MONOPOLE is characterised by great minerality, elegance and lightness. A garnet-red colour with purple highlights, its nose gives off aromas of red fruit. The first impression on the palate is worthy of a Premier Cru, and the finish is long and fresh. A well-balanced wine with silky tannins.
"Dark southern red fruits nose, arbutus, cranberry and pomegranate, sandalwood and rich thick black pepper aromas with smoked habanero chili and laurel infused seasalt.
Mellow mouthfeel with obvious high mineral tension. The gentle bitterness blended with a juicy taste and firm yet polished tannins creates a harmonious wine heading towards a wonderful salinity.
Red tuna tartar, feta cheese, pomegranate, whole grain pasta and samphire."
Tasting notes for our 2020 vintage by Quentin Loisel, Head Sommelier of a two-star restaurant in Paris.
To fully reveal the expression of a great wine, the choice of tasting glass is essential.A top-quality glass will offer a large surface area for aeration, helping to oxygenate the wine, while its narrower neck will concentrate the aromas for optimum perception of the olfactory nuances and aromatic complexity.
Moreover, Controlling the serving temperature is also crucial to preserving the integrity of the wine: ideally around 15°C for our CLOS LA MARCHE MONOPOLE.
Even the finest cuvées will lose some of their subtlety if these two essential factors - glass and temperature - are not carefully respected.
CLOS LA MARCHE MONOPOLE will express all its aromatic character alongside a pâté en croûte, a piece of Charolais beef, or a Cîteaux cheese, and it can beautifully accompany a chocolate fondant.
