2021 Audoin Marsannay Longeroies

$59.00

The Longeroies exhibits an ever darker fruit profile both aromatically and in the mouth, with a sense of succulent immediacy that is very charming and easy to love. It has good energy to accompany such fleshiness, with light but fine tannic grip lending shape. This will be a crowd pleaser and then some….

“Soaring from the glass with aromas of raspberries, plums, rose petals, violets and spices, the 2019 Marsannay Les Longeroies is medium to full-bodied, layered and perfumed, with lively acids, velvety tannins and a long, perfumed finish. This is one of the most sensual, elegant renditions of Les Longeroies that I’ve tasted from Audoin.” 91-93 William Kelley

“(from both the upper and lower climats). Touches of herbal tea, earth, the sauvage and a hint of spice add very nice range to the cool aromas of red cherry, red currant and discreet floral wisps. The rich, vibrant and well-detailed flavors possess excellent depth and even better persistence on the firmly structured finish where the only nit is a hint of warmth.

“(from both the upper and lower climats). A beautifully layered nose features notes of both red and dark cherry, spice and a whiff of the sauvage. There is once again a really lovely sense of energy to the delineated, chiseled and saline-inflected finale where a touch of pit fruit slowly emerges. This is sufficiently structured to need the better part of a decade to fully mature, yet it should be approachable after only 4 to 5 if desired. (89-91)/2029+” Allen Meadows
