The 2012 Maranges 1er Cru La Fussiere does not do justice to one of the appellation’s best vineyards. It has a simple dark-plum and strawberry nose that is clean and fruity. The palate is quite light on the entry and lacks grip. It just seems to drift toward the finish in second gear. Drink now. I have always preferred this domaine’s whites to their reds, and so it proved with the small selection of wines that I tasted in Burgundy. Importer: no known US importer but available through OW Loeb in the UK.
