2022 Bachelet-Monnot La Fussiere Maranges 1er

90-92 Points – Vinous: The 2022 Maranges Rouge La Fussires 1er Cru is a blend of several cuves with different proportions of whole bunches, averaging around 30%. It has more nuance on the nose than the Vieilles Vignes; the stems are neatly incorporated. The palate is medium-bodied with a sapid entry that gets the saliva flowing. With chalky tannins, quite firm structure and a hint of licorice on the finish, this Maranges deserves 3 or 4 years in bottle.
