Domaine Duchemin Maranges 1. Cru Le Clos des Loyères 2022

Domaine Duchemin’s Maranges 1er Cru Le Clos des Loyères 2022 is a beautifully expressive Burgundy Pinot Noir from what many consider the finest premier cru in Maranges. Sourced from old vines in Sampigny-lès-Maranges, this wine captures both the site’s chalky depth and Benjamin Duchemin’s thoughtful, traditional approach to élevage.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a deep ruby color with violet reflections, hinting at its youthful energy. The nose is lifted and inviting, opening with strawberry, raspberry, and wild berry notes, then unfolding into rose petals and a subtle touch of tobacco leaf. On the palate, the wine is driven by bright red fruit and a fresh, elegant profile, supported by fine, soft tannins. It has the balance and purity to provide plenty of immediate pleasure, while also offering a few years of aging potential for those who enjoy Burgundy as it evolves.

Production
The vines are planted in the commune of Sampigny-lès-Maranges, where they have long roots in chalk-rich soils that lend tension and character to the wine. For this cuvée, the fruit is fully destemmed, fermented in large wooden vats, and then matured for 14 months in French oak barrels, a process that adds texture and complexity without overshadowing the Pinot Noir fruit.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs well with roast chicken, duck breast, pork tenderloin, mushroom dishes, and charcuterie, as well as lighter game and soft cheeses. Serve at around 14–16°C, and decanting is optional but can help the aromas open up if the wine is enjoyed young.

Producer
Domaine Duchemin is the estate behind these well-crafted Maranges wines, with Benjamin Duchemin overseeing a focused, detail-driven winemaking style. His consistent use of destemming, fermentation in large wooden vessels, and French oak maturation has helped establish the domaine as a reliable source of quality wines from this part of Burgundy.
