Domaine Sylvain PATAILLE - Marsannay Clos du Roy 2018
Domaine Sylvain Pataille is located in Marsannay-la-Côte in the north of the Côte d´Or, in Burgundy. It was founded by Sylvain Pataille in 1999, with only one hectare of vines while he was still working in a laboratory in Beaune. In 2001, he decided to devote himself fully to his own vineyard and to enlarge it, reaching today 15 hectares. All the vineyards, inside or just outside the Marsannay appellation, are certified organic.
Le Clos du Roy is a plot cuvée made with Pinot Noir. Fermentation and vatting last 22 days, and aging is carried out on fine lees for 15 to 18 months in oak barrels, 30% of which are new.
Grape variety: 100% Pinot Noir
