Chateau de Chamirey Mercurey Rouge 2022, 750ml

Château de Chamirey Mercurey Rouge 2022 is made from Pinot Noir sourced from 10 village plots, including 3 Premier Cru sites (En Sazenay, Champs-Martin, Clos L’Évêque), planted on clay-limestone soils and varied exposures. Grapes were partially destemmed, followed by a 4–6 day cold pre-fermentation maceration to enhance phenolic extraction. Alcoholic fermentation was carried out with natural yeasts, and the wine underwent a 15-day maceration with pigeage and remontage. Ageing took place over 7 months in 228-liter Burgundian barrels (65%, with 10% new oak), followed by 2 months in stainless steel vats.

Tasting Note:

Aromas reveal fresh red fruits and violet. The palate is direct and balanced, with fresh tannins and a clean, elegant finish. Overall, the wine is precise and expressive, showing purity of fruit and restrained structure.
