Marsanne
Marsanne is a white wine grape variety that originates from the Rhône region in France. It is most commonly found in the Northern Rhône, where it is often blended with Roussanne. Marsanne is also grown in Switzerland, Australia, and United States, among other countries.
History
The origins of Marsanne are believed to be in the Northern Rhône region of France. The grape is named after the village of Marsanne, in the Drôme department. The first recorded mention of Marsanne was in the 16th century.
Viticulture
Marsanne is a late budding and ripening grape, which makes it susceptible to various viticultural hazards. It is a hardy grape, resistant to drought, but can be prone to powdery mildew and other diseases.
Wine
Marsanne produces deeply colored wines that are rich and nutty, with hints of spice and pear. The wines can be high in alcohol and can be either dry or slightly sweet. Marsanne is often blended with Roussanne, either during or after fermentation. These blends can have a high aging potential.
Regions
In France, Marsanne is primarily found in the Northern Rhône, particularly in the appellations of Hermitage, Crozes-Hermitage, and Saint-Joseph. It is also grown in the Languedoc-Roussillon region.
Outside of France, Marsanne is grown in Switzerland, where it is known as Ermitage or Ermitage Blanc. In Australia, it is found in the Victoria and South Australia regions. In the United States, Marsanne is grown in California and Washington.
Synonyms
Marsanne is also known under the synonyms of Ermitage, Ermitage Blanc, Hermitage, and Grosse Roussette.
