Marsannay Joseph Roty (Domaine) 2020

The wine

North of Côte de Nuits, Joseph Roty creates a Marsannay on a terroir that’s rich in iron, bringing strength and structure to his wine. This intense and silky wine is a pretty shade of ruby and offers aromas of red and black fruits. These same notes can be tasted, complete with a hint of spices such as cinnamon. Its elegant tannin content means it has an aging potential of just under 10 years and pairs well with meat.

The Joseph Roty domain is a family vineyard of 12 hectares, established for 11 generations on the communes of Gevrey-Chambertin and Marsannay, and today run by Joseph Roty and his son Philippe. It is undoubtedly one of the most famous Burgundy producers, even if any form of communication is refused and it does not appear to be looking for new, and in particular French, customers (85% of its wines are exported). Nevertheless, the rich and sensual style of its wines deserve their good rating in the Parker guide and the critics' regularly appraisal.
