What to Expect

Pinot Noir: Responsible for some of the greatest wines on earth - the exhausted red wines of France's Burgundy region. Pinot Noir is a notoriously fickle grape that expresses its origins like no other. It's a vine that needs to struggle to produce great wines but when it does the depth of flavors that range from cherry to cola can be explosive and the wines' bright acidity and gentle tannins make them approachable and widely appealing,

Winemakers Notes

Mercurey overlooks part of the Côte Chalonnaise from an altitude of over 250 m. Vines cover much of the two slopes of this wide and rugged hillside valley, stretching across the villages of Mercurey and Saint Martin-sous-Montaigu. The terroir is almost exclusively devoted to red grape production (approximately 90 %). 402 ha produce village-Appellation grapes. This lovely Pinot Noir wine has lots of character, with firm tannins and a very elegant finish. It will age for 10 years or more.
