Dom. Sorine, Maranges Vielles Vignes 2023

Get to know: Domaine Emma et Christian Sorine, Maranges Vielles Vignes 2023

Tasting Note

A classic example of Maranges at its best, this 2023 vintage delivers vibrant red fruit flavours - ripe cherries, wild strawberries, and a hint of raspberry. Beneath the fruit lies a subtle earthiness with notes of gentle spice from oak aging. Medium-bodied with soft, integrated tannins, this wine has a youthful brightness now but promises even greater complexity with a little more time in the bottle.

Try this with a roast lamb leg, grilled salmon, game like quail, or a truffle and wild mushroom pie.

Kate Says

“This wine has so much charm - juicy red fruit with a whisper of spice that makes you want to keep sipping. It’s delicious now, especially with a roast chicken or herby salmon, but I’d recommend tucking a bottle away for a year or two. Those old vines have given it some real aging potential!”
