Described by Rajat Parr as one of the best Bourgogne Rouge wines in Burgundy, Pataille’s first red is a blend of parcels in Marsannay and the Hautes Côtes, covering just over one hectare in total. Again, plenty of old vines are in the mix, including one parcel planted in 1956. Each parcel is vinified separately before blending, with various maceration styles involved. The final blend usually includes about 30% whole bunches. The wine ages in barrel for one year and is not touched by sulphur until bottling. It’s a delicious red that lives up to Parr’s billing.
