Domaine Sylvain Pataille Marsannay Rouge Longeroies 2022 [NET]

$10499

Marsannay's long campaign for premier cru status is the backdrop to this bottle, and Pataille's work is a large part of why the case is being taken seriously. His 0.83-hectare parcel sits in Bas des Longeroies, the prized lower section of one of the village's largest vineyards — a southeast-facing slope at 275 meters on gravelly, reddish-tan soil over limestone and ancient riverbed alluvium. Two-thirds of the vines went in during the early 2000s, a third in the mid-1950s. It ferments with 100% whole clusters and ambient yeasts, is extracted gently, and ages 18 months in barrel with just 15% new oak; farming is certified organic and biodynamic, with minimal sulfur at bottling. 2022 was a warm, dry year that nonetheless delivered ripe, melting tannins and real perfume — approachable now with air, but built to reward five to ten years.

"Firm reduction completely masks the underlying fruit. More interesting are the racy and beautifully detailed medium-bodied flavors that exude evident minerality on the moderately austere and decidedly firm finale that exhibits lovely balance. This is very good but firm enough to need at least some patience, indeed up to a decade's worth would not surprise me."

"The 2022 Marsannay Les Longeroies offers open red cherry and raspberry coulis scents on the nose—one of the most generous at the moment amongst Pataille's 2022s. The palate is medium-bodied with fine, slightly flinty red fruit and fine delineation, finishing with impressive focus. Plenty of energy coiled up in this Marsannay. Excellent." —Neal Martin

More about Domaine Sylvain Pataille

Sylvain Pataille is one of those rare vignerons whose hard work and dedication has elevated the overall quality and public perception of the wines in his village. Sylvain, and his brother Laurent, now farm 15 hectares of vineyards located exclusively in Marsannay. They have been pushing hard to designate some of the special terroir there as 1er Cru, and it will likely happen soon. When you shake Sylvain's hands you are reminded that these are hands that work really hard! They are rough as sandpaper because he is out in the vineyards 11 months of the year. Sylvain is also a very talented chemist who so excelled at his classes in Bordeaux that he in the consulting enologist at 15 or so great domaines in Burgundy including Domaine Roumier in Chambolle-Musigny and Château de la Tour in Clos Vougeot. He is very passionate and devoted to his domaine in Marsannay which he built from nothing. His first vintage was in 1999. Like Bruno Clair he is an indefatigable champion of the village of Marsannay.

Sylvain has been organically certified since 2008, and has been employing biodynamics in the vineyards and cellar for over a decade. With the exception of small amounts of sulphur when needed, there are no additions whatsoever. His wines are both “natural” and completely classic . . . black magic!
