Tasting notes

The Domaine Bruno Clair Marsannay 'Les Grasses Têtes' Red 2022 is characterized by its intense red and dark fruit aromas of cranberry, cherry, and raspberry, with notes of earth, minerality, and subtle spice, and sometimes a hint of wood from the barrel. The palate offers a tight, linear structure, vibrant acidity, and fine, firm tannins. It's a powerful, focused wine with a long, somewhat austere finish, typical of its terroir, and a significant aging potential.
