With a patchwork of vines covering more than two hectares, this is arguably Pataille’s signature red cuvée. The vineyards are spread across Chenôve, Couchey and Marsannay-la-Côte. All the vines were planted between 1950 and 1980, with the youngest over 40 years old. The wines aged in a mixture of used barriques and several old demi-muids (600 litres). The final blend includes around 80% bunches. This is what great Marsannay is all about.

“The 2022 Marsannay Rouge is a mixture of Domaine and négoce wines (from Pataille's father). Initially, it is a little timid, but it opens nicely with aeration, bringing flinty black fruit with the 80% whole bunches imparting a light pepperiness. The palate is medium-bodied with granular tannins, fresh and vibrant, finishing with a touch of black olive.” 88-90 points, Neal Martin, Vinous

“A lovely glowing mid red, with a fresh strawberry note, plenty of energy, and very good acidity. A lovely and lively wine with a very long finish. Drink from 2025-2029.” 90-91 points, Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy
