Domaine Sylvain Pataille Marsannay 'Clos du Roy', Cote de Nuits, France 2022

Domaine Sylvain Pataille’s Clos du Roy 2022 is a remarkable expression of Marsannay, showcasing the precision and depth that have made Pataille one of Burgundy’s most exciting growers. From mature vines rooted in limestone-rich soils, this 100% Pinot Noir delivers black cherry, wild strawberry and cassis, layered with violet, exotic tea, smoky spice and a distinct saline minerality. Concentrated yet beautifully poised, it balances ripe fruit with vibrant freshness, fine-grained tannins and an exceptionally long, mineral-driven finish. A standout northern Côte de Nuits bottling with the structure to evolve gracefully in the cellar.
