Clos de la Fussi猫re is a 2.6 acre block within and towards the bottom of La Fussi猫re premier cru in Dezize-les-Maranges. It is a monopole belonging to of Xavier Monnot鈥檚 family for five generations. It is a steep, south-facing site that gives a wine that is rich, fleshy and dense.
Grape Varietal:
100% Pinot Noir
Tasting Notes:
Three villages at the southernmost end of the C么te de Beaune make up the Maranges AOC: Cheilly-l猫s-Maranges, Dezize-l猫s-Maranges and Sampigny-l猫s-Maranges. Here, we鈥檝e transitioned out of the C么te d鈥橭r and into the Sa么ne-et-Loire d茅partment. Although the soil is like that of neighboring Santenay, Maranges is not strictly east-facing and its terrain is more diverse. Maranges is often described as fleshy, rich, and characterful.
Food Pairing:
Red Burgundy might be the world's most flexible food wine. The wine鈥檚 high acidity, medium body, medium alcohol, and low tannins make it very food friendly. Red Burgundy, with its earthy and sometimes gamey character, is a classic partner to roasted game birds, grilled duck breast, and dishes that feature mushrooms, black truffles, or are rich in umami.
