Rich, beautifully balanced and full of character, this is a wonderful example of just how good Mercurey can be. There's plenty of ripe cherry, dark berries and savoury spice, with lovely silky tannins and a touch of earthy complexity. The warm 2018 vintage has given this wine generous fruit and impressive depth, while several years in bottle have allowed it to develop additional character. With 93 points from James Suckling and the added distinction of coming from a Premier Cru monopole vineyard, this is a terrific find for Burgundy lovers.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAroma:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Ripe black cherry, red berries and dark plum, with fragrant violet, dried strawberry, subtle oak spice and hints of earthy complexity.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePalate:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Rich and beautifully rounded, with generous black cherry, raspberry and red plum flavours.
