The 2019 Maranges Villages is a blend of Village Cru and Premier Cru fruit with 10-15% whole clusters. A blend of two blocks including one parcel that is Premier Cru, it has a lively red cherry and strawberry scented bouquet that is very fruit-forward at the moment. The palate is well balanced with succulent, almost fleshy tannins and gentle grip towards the finish that has just the right amount of bitterness. Good potential.
