Clos Marey-Monge Monopole 2020

  • With its brilliant, bright ruby color and purple undertones, our Clos Marey-Monge Monopole 2020 is a complex, generous and aromatic wine. The flattering nose reveals delicate notes of black fruit and dried flowers, highlighted by sweet spices. The palate is fresh, round and generous, while the tannins are silky with a light sweetness. The very full and complex finish gives this wine power and grace. A great Pommard for aging, but one which can also be appreciated today.

  • The largest monopole in Burgundy, Clos Marey-Monge benefits from a unique environment protected by a two-meter-high stone wall. Positioned at the base of the hill of Pommard, the complexity of our vineyard’s soils come from the alluvia, sand and gravel carried along by the Avant-Dheune river one thousand years ago. Our blend of the seven cuvées from the limestone and clay-rich terroirs of the Clos creates a deep, elegant, and sophisticated Pinot Noir.
