TASTING
The 75 rows of the eponymous plot produce a ruby-colored Pinot Noir praised to bring skeleton to our Clos Marey-Monge Monopole blend. Both the nose and palate display aromas of black and red fruit, such as frutti di bosco, alongside wild notes of musk and smokle creating a distinctive and elegant animality. With a salty, mineral finish, our 75 Rangs 2017 is a Pinot Noir made for aging.
TERROIR
Thousands of years ago, an underground spring flooded the 0.85 hectare of 75 Rangs with minerals. Planted in 1962 and 1964, this plot located at the lowest topographic position in the Clos Marey-Monge benefits from shallow and limestone-rich soil that produces a Pinot Noir rich in minerals with a salty finish.
