About the 2005 Marsannay Les Longeroies – which had been assembled in fuder – I had no such reservations. Bright, sappy, and brisk in its fruit character, tinged with salty, chalky minerals and attractively bitter cherry pit, this at the same time displays an incipient creaminess of texture and firm, well-integrated tannins that do not prevent an impression of sleekness and refinement emerging in the finish. This has plenty of ripe fruit acidity, tannin and energy in reserve. I’d love to check it out after it has rested from bottling, but it would no doubt repay a few years in the cellar.
