Maranges 1er Cru Le Croix Moines Camille Giroud (no reserve) 2009

The wine

Maranges produces powerful wines. Always very colourful, the red wines release aromas of small red fruits and undergrowth. A touch of fur can be detected when they are mature. Their tannins are reinforced with a lovely mellowness that produces a really meaty wine which is ample and firm on the palate. There is a small production of rich well-balanced white wines with almond and exotic fruit aromas.
