The Mercurey Les Montots 2023 from Domaine de Villaine reveals the clay-limestone soils of Mercurey. This organic Pinot Noir, aged in barrels, combines dark fruits and spices. On the palate, silky tannins and chalky minerality are beautifully balanced. Perfect to enjoy now or to cellar until 2030.
Nestled in the heart of Burgundy, this family estate embodies a viticultural heritage where rigour and respect for the terroir guide every gesture.
- Terroir: Clay-limestone hillsides in Mercurey, fully south-facing, where the Pinot Noir draws its minerality and tension.
- Vinification: Manual harvesting, indigenous yeasts and ageing in oak barrels for a pure and structured expression.
In the eye: A deep ruby robe, almost opaque, with dense and silky hues.
On the nose: Aromas of wild blackberry and black cherry intertwine with notes of grey pepper and liquorice, lifted by a saline touch and a discreet animal imprint.
On the palate: A frank and juicy attack, carried by firm yet velvety tannins, a lively acidity and a chalky minerality that stretches into a long and precise finish.
Serve between 16°C and 18°C in a Burgundy glass to reveal its full complexity.
A vintage marked by optimal grape maturity, offering a balance between concentration and freshness.
- Ageing potential: To be kept 5 to 10 years in a cool and humid cellar to unveil its full finesse.
