🏰 The 2023 Burgundy vintage was notable for both its quantity and quality. Although it was Burgundy's warmest year on record, much of the heat occurred during warmer nights and throughout winter, spring, and autumn, with a relatively cool summer. A late-season heat spike in late August rapidly pushed grapes to ripeness, making precise harvest timing crucial to avoid overripeness. Joseph Roty's Marsannay Champs Saint Etienne 2023 is expected to embody the elegance of the vintage. Tasting notes for Marsannay reds from 2023 describe a deep ruby red with garnet highlights, an intense bouquet of bigarreau, blackcurrant, strawberry, and blueberry, almost jammy. The palate is rich, concentrated, greedy, fruity, round, and generous. Another review mentions a dark ruby, black cherry color, a greedy, almost sanguine nose with intense concentration of ripe black fruits, prunes, and blackcurrants, enhanced by subtle toasty notes, and a velvety palate with silky tannins and a juicy, delicately woody finish. 【 2023年馬桑內紅酒展現了力量與優雅的結合，完美呈現了每個風土的特色 】. 🍴 This Marsannay red is an ideal partner for red meats such as a fine piece of beef, entrecote steak with shallots, or ostrich steak. It also pairs well with small marinated game, river and freshwater fish like pike, carp, or perch, grilled vegetables, chop suey, or strong cow's milk cheeses such as Époisses or Munster. 🥂 While enjoyable now, this wine will gain complexity over the next 5 to 8 years. It's a charming and approachable vintage, perfect for enjoying in its youth or with a few years of cellaring.
