In January 1976
We’ve featured this producer’s white wine before
The taste is gamey
lightly grippy tannins shaping the fruit without softening it
We’ll focus on Ravenswood today
Chateau Marsannay Longeroies Caymus In January 1976Firm and mineral driven, this opens with red plum, sour cherry, and dried cranberry, layered with rose stem, iron rich soil, and crushed stone. The palate is medium light but tightly structured, showing Longeroies signature seriousness through savory red fruit, fine, grippy tannins, and a steady, linear acidity. Subtle notes of oolong tea, damp earth, and spice unfold through the mid palate, carrying into a long, dry, stony finish.
