Rouges-Queues, Maranges 1er Cru Clos Roussots 2020 Chianti together with Marcel LapierreThe Wine Clos Roussots is one of the two premier cru vineyards that dominate the eastern part of the village appellation. Planted in 1990, it is located above La Fussire and benefits from south southeast exposure which ensures full ripening. The soils are composed of some gray and blue marl on top of the classic limestone & clay of the Cte dOr. This vineyard is plowed entirely by horse to minimize the impact on the soil structure, flora and fauna.
