Domaine Edmond Monnot: Maranges 1er Cru 'Clos De La Boutiére' Red Wine

This exquisite Maranges 1er Cru “Clos De La Boutiére” from Domaine Edmond Monnot represents the sophisticated side of Burgundy’s Côte de Beaune. Sourced from a Premier Cru vineyard, this Pinot Noir is crafted to deliver classic finesse with a robust, terroir-driven character.

The Monnot family’s commitment to quality shines through in this wine, which benefits from careful, sustainable viticulture and gentle winemaking techniques. It’s a beautifully structured red that offers complexity now, yet will richly reward those who choose to cellar it for several years.

Tasting Profile

A true expression of fine Pinot Noir:

• Appearance: A radiant, deep crimson.
• Aroma: Rich and aromatic, with concentrated notes of black cherry, wild raspberry, and violet, underpinned by subtle spice and a touch of earthiness (sous-bois).
• Mouthfeel: Elegant and beautifully balanced. The tannins are fine-grained and velvety, leading to a long, savoury finish with refreshing acidity and a pronounced mineral edge.

Serving & Accords

We recommend decanting for up to an hour to allow the bouquet to fully open. Serve slightly chilled at 16°C-17°C. This wine is a brilliant accompaniment to British classics:

• Traditional Roast Lamb with Rosemary and Garlic.
• Game Terrine or a rich Game Pie.
• Slow-cooked Beef or Oxtail Stew.
