FEATURES
Domaine Les Astrelles, situated in Gevrey-Chambertin, produces this Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Nuits 'Les Martennes' Rouge. The 2022 vintage in Burgundy was notable for its good volume, freshness, and delicacy, offering a "serene" and "very tasty" profile that avoided the austerity sometimes found in younger wines. The Les Martennes vineyard is located within the Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Nuits appellation.
The 2022 Les Martennes Rouge is described as a polished wine. Expect notes of red cherry, raspberry, violet, subtle earth, and fine spice. It is medium-bodied, with bright acidity and fine-grained tannins, culminating in a finish of pure red fruit and a balanced, savory character. Other tasting notes for the 2022 vintage mention a mix of red and dark fruits, a medium body, high acidity with a long finish, and firm, dry tannins. It also shows more aromatic depth, lithe muscle, a hint of cooking herbs, extra breadth and incisiveness, and intensity.
As a Burgundy Red wine, it generally pairs well with beef, veal, poultry, and game such as venison.
This wine is a versatile choice, suitable for drinking now, gifting, or for cellaring. The 2022 vintage, with its structure, may benefit from 12 months to 3 years of patience to fully develop.
