The 2011 Marsannay Clos du Roy Blanc has an appealing bouquet with subtle tropical fruit aromas – orange blossom and nectarine, nicely focused and, to be honest, perhaps worthy of a slightly better palate. It is fresh on the entry with nectarine and pear, although there is a sweet, almost crème br?lée note on the finish that detracts from the precision expressed by the superior 2012. Drink this over the next 3 to 4 years.
