Domaine Moron-Garcia, Marsannay Clos du Roy 2017

The Moron-Garcia Marsannay Clos du Roy is a rather intense and powerful wine for this level. While the 2017s are fruity and forward this does have quite an edge – character and a lovely vivid expression. The nose offer plenty of red and dark fruits – quite intense. On the palate good energy – lovely minerality – will need a bit of time to unfold.

(Drink from 2023) – Very Good – (87 – 88p) – Tasted 06/03/2019.
