Chateau de Chamirey Mercurey "En Pierrelet" Blanc 2016, 750ml

This cuvée comes from two 'En Pierrelet' plots planted in 1990, located behind Château de Chamirey, covering just 1 hectare in the heart of the vineyard. Planted in clay and limestone soils with a predominance of limestone and a high concentration of small white stones on the surface. The vineyard faces south-east.

Fermentation and aging occur in 400-liter barrels for 11 months, followed by three months in stainless steel tanks. Lightly toasted French oak, mainly from Allier, and Vosges forests, is used. Malolactic fermentation is completed 100%.

Tasting Note:

The nose develops sweet spices aromas, nutmeg and white flowers. On the palate, wine is ripe but sharp. Lightly oaky with a lovely aromatic focus on green fruit and buttery aromas. The finish is long and fresh.
