Le Marigny Vieilles Vignes

Our medium-sweet wine is bursting with sunshine and roundness, but still has enough energy on the palate to ensure it will age well (70 g residual sugar). As an aperitif, it is sure to enchant your most eager food-loving friends. It is a treat for the taste buds towards the end of a meal, and goes beautifully with apple, pear and even chocolate desserts. Serve between 8 and 10°.

... Le Marigny Veilles Vignes

2020 ‒ Vinous, Rebecca Gibb MW
A 10-hectare parcel produces the fruit for the nobly rotted 2020 Vouvray Moelleux Le Marigny. It’s relatively aromatic, offering up florals, orange and apricots on the nose. On the palate, it’s round and sweet and super easy to like, sitting comfortably in the mouth like honey. Slightly lacking in freshness on the finish. 89

2010 ‒ The Wine Doctor
The lieu-dit of Le Marigny is perhaps best known through the wines of Domaine des Aubuisières, but Jean-Claude and Christophe have some vines here too. The vineyard is tucked in to the west of the town of Vouvray, on the première côte, and as such it deserves to be better known. Now ten year’s old, this wine displays an orange-gold hue in the glass, richly pigmented yet shimmering and bright. The nose is rich in botrytised and evolved fruit character, with scents of dried figs, quince, griddled pear and white peach, along with traces of white raisin and caramelised nuts. A wine which is rich in substance and purity, nicely botrytised but cut with fresh acidity, giving it a very elegant, taut and vigorous style. Very well done. 94/100

1990 – The Wine Doctor
A traditional moelleux cuvée, from hand-picked fruit in Le Marigny, most of which is in the hands of the Pichot family. The residual sugar in this vintage is 70 g/l. An appropriately polished and golden hue in the glass is matched by scents of toasted fruit and praline, the aromatic profile clearly communicating an evolved and yet fresh character. The palate continues with layers of sweetly botrytised fruits and toasted nuts, carried by welcome acidity, and unlike some other moelleux cuvées from the 1990 vintage tasted in recent times this still feels young. It culminates with an energetic finish, one swirled with black tea, liquorice and praline. A classic in the making. 96/100 (October 2020)
