Burgundy

Sold individually
Drink or Keep
Ouvert, équilibré et gourmand, Le Renard dans sa version blanc s'exprime au nez sur des arômes d’herbes fraiches, de fruits blancs, de feuille de lierre. Beaucoup de fraicheur en bouche, avec une bonne persistance en finale, où percent des nuances salées, iodées. Une pure expression du cépage, un vin facile à boire !

Expert opinion
Bettane & Desseauve
Rated domain (guide 2025) 3*Stars (High-quality production that sets the standard in its sector)
About the domain :
The Devillard family has expanded beyond the borders of Burgundy with the purchase of Maison Rolet in the Jura. In Mercurey, Château de Chamirey remains the largest of their Burgundy estates, with 37 hectares, including 15 Premier Cru. A special feature of the estate is the table d'hôtes in the heart of the hamlet. A skilled technical team, led by a dynamic duo, Robert Vernizeau and Enrico Peyrone, constantly strive to improve their work in the vineyards, in winemaking and in ageing, always in pursuit of excellence. The 2017 vintage was particularly successful, hitting the bull's-eye with both red and white wines in our blind tastings. A step up in our hierarchy could come very soon.
