Longeroies is on the boundary between Marsannay and the next village of Chenôve. It is a star climat of the AOC and has been earmarked for promotion to 1er Cru (when Marsannay finally gets some), a logic echoed by Jasper Morris MW in his excellent tome Inside Burgundy. Longeroies faces south, and the two Mortet parcels sit mid-slope. One is 50 years old, and the other was planted with Pinot Fin clones in 1992
.
The aging consists of 18 months in oak casks (only 20% new) and the balance in one- and two-year-old wood. Marsannay is one of the last great value appellations of the Côte and this is genuinely one of its finest examples.
