The 2021 Marsannay Blanc, which includes some Chardonnay Rosé vines, has a well-defined, slightly austere bouquet that opens nicely with aeration. The palate is taut and fresh with orange pith and citrus fruit, plus just a cherry hint on the finish. Very attractive.

Exhibiting aromas of crisp white peach, flowers, almond paste and crisp green apple, the 2021 Marsannay Blanc (Domaine Louis Jadot) is medium-bodied, satiny and incisive, with good cut and tension. As usual, it contains the fruit from half a hectare planted with Chardonnay Rosé, a selection of Chardonnay that's delicately pigmented.
