Belland Maranges 1er Fussiere 2022

“Beautiful and bountiful,” writes Jasper Morris of the 2022 red Burgundies; “very good wines and plenty of them.”  William Kelley calls them “succulent, suave and charming”, “offering excellence in both colors and in a wide variety of styles.”  Roger Belland’s reds are entirely classic, with ripe modern fruit but traditional, low-alcohol textures.

His Maranges premier cru  “Fussiere” is excellent in 2022, with a very attractive texture. It has plenty of substance, with pleasantly ripe tannins and good dark fruit. The fruits are plum and cherry, with a youthful, friendly texture – bring this along to a summer picnic.
