Chateau de Chamirey Mercurey, Cote Chalonnaise, France 2019

Description

The 2019 Mercurey from Château de Chamirey is a clean, classic expression of the Côte Chalonnaise, offering balance and restraint rather than power. Aromas of red cherry, raspberry, and dried rose lead into a palate that’s fresh and savory, with lively acidity and finely woven tannins. Subtle earth and spice add depth without overshadowing the fruit, and oak remains well in the background.

Approachable yet serious, this is a quietly confident Burgundy that drinks well now and will continue to develop nicely over the next few years.
