Marsannay Blanc 2022 91VM
Domaine Sylvain Pataille
Marsannay, Cote de Nuits, Burgundy

(89-91) pts Vinous
The 2022 Marsannay Blanc is a blend of several parcels. It was fairly reduced on the nose when I encountered it. The palate is more promising—much more—finely balanced with perfectly judged acidity, tangible mineralité, and a delicacy on the finish that I appreciate. Give it 12 months once in bottle. - By Neal Martin on November 2023
