2015 Domaine Bruno Clair Marsannay Blanc

The 2015 Domaine Bruno Clair Marsannay Blanc is a mature white Burgundy from Marsannay in the Côte de Nuits, produced from Chardonnay with a portion of Pinot Blanc sourced from parcels on the Marsannay slope. The nose shows ripe citrus, apple and apricot with white flowers, almond, honey and subtle mineral notes developing with bottle age.

On the palate, it is medium-bodied with rounded citrus and orchard fruit, refreshing mineral acidity and a gently waxy, textured character. Indigenous fermentation and extended maturation in older oak contribute depth and complexity while allowing the fruit and mineral character to remain prominent through a long, balanced finish.

Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great choice for Burgundy drinkers who enjoy mature white wines with citrus, orchard fruit, subtle honeyed development and mineral freshness. The 2015 is drinking well now, with careful storage history particularly important at this age. Ideal with roast chicken, grilled fish, scallops, lobster, creamy mushroom dishes or aged Comté.
