A blend of Chardonnay and Chardonnay Musqué (~70%), an aromatic mutation of Chardonnay, has a floral nose, and is round, with nice persistance on the palate. Chardonnay Musqué was a favorite of Pierre's great grandfather. Bart makes about 125 cases per year. Aged for eight months in stainless steel. Salty and honeydew melon notes.
Marsannay is the northernmost appellation of the Cote d’Or, bordered by Fixin to the south and Dijon to its north. It’s the only appellation in all of Burgundy that makes village level wine of all three colors, red, white, and rose. Vines have been planted here going back to at least the 7th century and some climats were considered the equivalent of grand cru up until the 19th century. (Bourgogne-wines.com). More than twenty years ago, the winemakers of Marsannay put together a dossier to nominate 14 different vineyards as premier cru and it’s expected to be decided in the next year or two.
