Marsannay Blanc 2022

The 2022 Marsannay Blanc from Philippe Charlopin demonstrates the potential of this northern Côte de Nuits appellation for white wines.

The nose is fresh and expressive, offering bright citrus notes and white orchard fruits, complemented by subtle floral elements and a distinct mineral character typical of Marsannay's limestone-rich soils. The aromatic profile shows both the ripeness of the warm 2022 vintage and the natural freshness of this cooler northern sector.

On the palate, the wine displays good tension and energy, with vibrant acidity balancing the ripe fruit core. The texture is precise and focused, with mineral elements providing structure and lift. The warmth of 2022 brings welcome ripeness while maintaining freshness. The finish shows good persistence, with citrus and stone notes carrying through.

This wine captures both the distinctive character of Marsannay's terroir for white wines and Charlopin's ability to craft wines of precision and clarity.
