Information
It's thanks to winemakers like Sylvain Pataille, who put their passion and talent at the service of the great terroir of Marsannay, that this young appellation has earned its place as one of the top wines of the Côte de Nuits. An unmissable signature, that the iDealwine team is particularly proud to have as one of their partner domains.Sylvain Pataille is a young enologist who had to compare his theoretical background with what really goes on in the vineyard. He managed this well and is today considered one of the great wine growers of Burgundy, hot on the heels of people like Jean Fournier. His "L'Ancestrale" cuvée was classified as a grand cru, due to the exceptional length on the palate. Sylvain Pataille studied enology in Bordeaux, but it is Burgundy whose land he defends with all his heart. He has been certified in organic farming since 2008
The ruby-red appearance of this Marsannay presents superb notes of black berries and white pepper. Juicy, intense and deep, this meaty wine reveals firm, delicate tannins and an elegant, persistent finish; attributes which both make for an unbelievably classy wine. To produce this wine – which uses grapes from vines between 60 and 80 years old, cultivated organically and biodynamically – Sylvain Pataille uses natural vinification processes, with native yeasts. The wine is then matured in barrels (35% new wood) on fine lees for nearly a year and a half.
