Jean-Claude Marsanne
The hidden nugget of Mauves with wines (Saint-Joseph and IGP) of exceptional value for money...
On the superb steep slopes of Mauves and Tournon, with a superb southern and eastern exposure, Jean-Claude Marsanne cultivates in the traditional way a very fine heritage of old vines (up to 80 years old). Yields are very limited thanks to short pruning and severe disbudding. The vines are worked with great care. The grapes are of course harvested by hand with a strict sorting. The style of the Domaine Marsanne wines is very classic, in the good sense of the word, with great purity, volume and tannins of great elegance. You will find a very coherent range of wines with a new red wine called "mauve" in IGP already of high level and then the standard of the domain in Saint-Joseph. In white, a very beautiful viognier and the white in Saint-Joseph very pure and already very coveted.
