Chateau Marsannay, Ruchottes Chambertin Vintage:2015 This is the first vintage

This is the first vintage of Yalumba s new Cabernet/Shiraz-based flagship wine

very dry and saline finale that delivers outstanding persistence

even seductively textured medium-bodied flavors that possess focused power and punch on the balanced and impressively persistent finish

the tannins are a bit rustic

The full-bodied palate is densely packed and tightly wound with loads of black fruits

Chateau Marsannay, Ruchottes Chambertin Vintage:2015 This is the first vintage(from a . 09 ha parcel). This is also quite reduced and essentially unreadable. Otherwise there is a distinctly cool and restrained character to the lively and well detailed middle weight flavors that possess a seductive texture before concluding in an intensely stony, complex and well balanced finish. This too should benefit from mid term cellaring yet unlike the Chambertin, it should be approachable young if desired. (90 93) 2024+
