Marsannay "Cuvée Saint Urban" 2019 Jean Fournier
Marsannay Cuvee Saint Urban 2019 is a red wine from Burgundy produced using natural methods by Domaine Jean Fournier. It is made from Pinot Noir grapes from 20-40 year old vines from different vineyards in Marsannay such as Es Chezots, Clos du Roy, Longerois.
The structure of this wine is a bit less firm than the other Marsannay labels of Jean Fournier, a slightly rustic wine with a bouquet that gives aromas of strawberry, spices and roots.
The palate is medium-bodied with a soft and meaty opening, well-defined acidity and good substance on the finish of red cherry and strawberry, a hint of pepper in the aftertaste.
