Tasting Notes

88-90
Vinous Neal Martin - 17 Jan 24
The 2022 Marsannay Le Chapitre has a scent of shucked oyster shells on the nose. The palate is a bit gassy at the moment with some CO2, but the tannins are fine and there’s an edgy, spicy finish that gets the mouth tingling on the aftertaste. Give this a couple of years in bottle.
