From the domain

Sylvain Pataille's Marsannay La Montagne is a red wine from a secluded terroir located north of the Côte de Nuits, on the outskirts of Dijon. On this east-facing, high-altitude plot, Pinot Noir thrives in marl-limestone soil, resulting in a wine of great finesse. It boasts a beautiful mineral tension and a freshness characteristic of the Pataille style. The wine offers pure aromas, dominated by small red fruits (redcurrant, raspberry), floral notes (violet), and a touch of sweet spice on the finish.

Sylvain Pataille, an iconic winemaker and ardent defender of the Marsannay appellation, vinifies this wine biodynamically, with a demanding plot-by-plot approach and meticulous winemaking. La Montagne is distinguished by its silky structure, well-integrated acidity, and elegant tannins. Still young, it deserves a few years of aging to reveal its full potential, but can already be enjoyed after aeration, particularly with a fine roasted poultry or a mushroom dish. This wine embodies the rise in quality of Marsannay and Pataille's undeniable talent for revealing the unique character of each vineyard site.
