Domaine Bachelet-Monnot Maranges 1er Cru La Fussière 2016

From bottle, the 2016 Maranges 1er Cru La Fussière Blanc was also showing very well, and it will be hard to choose between this somewhat more cool-vintage-styled rendition and the more immediately giving, expressive 2017. Offering up aromas of green apples, toasted nuts, iodine and subtle chamomile, the wine is medium to full-bodied, ample and elegantly textural, with a bright line of acidity, chalky extract and a pure, saline finish.
