Domaine Voarick - Mercurey 1er Cru Clos du Roy 2019

5/5 (1 review)

"A beautiful, silky, rich Clos du Roy!

"Clos du Roy is probably the best-known of Mercurey's premier crus, and this licorice-tinged cuvée offers rich, unctuous flavors of black plum and blackberry, accented by hints of vanilla, cracked black pepper and smoke. Delicately tannic with a silky texture, this wine is accessible in its youth and should reach its peak until 2027." (Wine Enthusiast 2022)

Domaine Voarick - Mercurey 2018

"A cuvée of pleasure, with floral and vanilla notes".

A very floral nose characterizes this Mercurey blanc, with notes of butter and vanilla on the palate, accompanied by fine lemony touches. Try it with a chocolate fondant...

Domaine Faiveley - Mercurey Vieilles Vignes 2022

5/5 (1 review)

"The power of Vieilles Vignes wrapped in a touch of vanilla".

Old Pinot Noir vines produce a wine of exceptional aromatic intensity, faithfully revealing the Mercurey terroir. On the palate, we find the ripe red berries typical of the appellation, with a touch of vanilla that adds delicacy. It will appeal to neophytes and will be greatly appreciated by enlightened wine lovers.

Domaine de Suremain - Mercurey 1er Cru 2021

4.5/5 (2 reviews)

"The progress is remarkable and still places the 2021 in the appellation's top three (B+D)".

"It has an extra breed compared with Mercurey in the appellation communale. The palate is complex, racy and delicate". (Le Guide Bettane + Desseauve). This Mercurey 1er cru, with its brilliant ruby color, reveals a highly aromatic nose of black fruit and floral notes, accompanied by minerality. Fine and elegant, the palate is generous and structured.

Château de Chamirey - Mercurey rouge 2021

"Excellent introduction to the range"

"The Mercurey Village is an excellent introduction to the range, with pleasant raspberry and floral notes, without too much oak. The wine is a blend of grapes from ten different parcels and some declassified premier cru juice. The palate is fresh without being acidic, the tannins are firm and the wine is quite long. The grapes are mostly destemmed and fermented in vats before being aged for a year in barrels (for 70% of the wine, including 10% new barrels) and in tanks." (Decanter 2022)

Château de Chamirey - Mercurey 1er Cru Clos l'Evêque 2021

"Opulence and balance

"Clos l'Evêque is located in the northern part of Mercurey; the estate owns three parcels on the highest point of the appellation. The young vines have produced a ripe, generous wine with aromas of black plum, earth and smoke. The texture is dense and velvety, with a sensation of richness greater than elsewhere in this winery. The opulent fruit is well balanced by fresh acidity that carries the wine through to a lingering finish." (Decanter 2022).

Château de Chamirey - Mercurey blanc 2021

"Pearl of Chardonnay

"After its pear and peach notes on the attack, we appreciate its long, refined and fresh allonge". (Le Guide Bettane + Desseauve). It's an anthology of floral notes and white-fleshed fruit that opens up to us during tasting. This Mercurey is a very fine expression of Chardonnay, a rare pearl for the appellation since this grape variety accounts for only 15%.

Louis Jadot - Mercurey 1er cru Grand Clos Fortoul 2021

4/5 (1 review)

"Structure and generosity

Very fruity on the nose, this Mercurey 1er cru Grand Clos Fourtoul is supple and generous on the palate, fruity and elegant, with a fine structure. Pleasure and seduction await you during your tasting...

Château de Chamirey - Mercurey 1er Cru Clos du Roi 2019

4/5 (2 reviews)

"Layered and enveloping, Mercurey 1er Cru Clos du Roi 2019 is a medium to full-bodied, velvety and vibrant wine evoking sweet berries, plums, orange zest and dried flowers. This is a particularly charming Clos du Roi that will offer a wide tasting window." (Wine Advocate 2021).

Bouchard Père & Fils - Mercurey 2018

"Emblematic appellation of the Côte Chalonnaise".

The Côte Chalonnaise has a soil and climate similar to those of the Côte d'Or, of which it is the geological continuity, but with a different regularity and continuity in the profile of the hillsides. Among them, an emblematic appellation stands out: Mercurey, which produces aromatic, tasty wines of great conviviality.

Château de Chamirey - Mercurey En Pierrelet 2019

5/5 (1 review)

"Bright, clear gold. En Pierrelet is a little riper. The profile of this Chardonnay is incisive, fine and precise, little impacted by its ageing, seductive by its freshness too." (Le Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France 2022 - RVF) A very fine terroir white.

Château de Chamirey - Mercurey Clos de la Maladière 2017

4.5/5 (4 reviews)

" From a parcel with deep but well-drained soils, Mercurey Clos de la Maladière 2017 leaps from the glass with a rich bouquet of smoky berries, roasted espresso and grilled meats. On the palate, it's medium- to full-bodied, with a fleshier, softer profile than other Mercurey cuvées and a more enveloping core of fruit." (Wine Advocate 2019)

Château de Chamirey - Mercurey 1er Cru Les Cinq 2015

"This wine is the essence of the Devillard family's five premier crus (they also vinify them separately). It brings out the essential Mercurey: rich, generous and with big, ripe red fruit. The tannins are there to allow this impressive wine to age. Drink from 2022." (Wine Enthusiast 2017). Thanks to the great 2010 vintage, the Devillard family decided to create this grand cuvée called "Les Cinq" by selecting the best parts of the five red Premiers Crus of the estate. Limited quantities available.

Château de Chamirey - Mercurey 1er Cru La Mission Monopole 2017

4.3/5 (15 reviews)

"This cuvée, made from vines planted in 1961 and 1997, won over seduced the tasters. Rich nose with notes of crème brûlée crème brûlée, caramel and a hint of smoke. The palate impresses with its power, fatness and nervous fruitiness, carried freshness on the finish. A great wine " (Bourgogne Aujourd'hui - Dec 2019 -Jan 2020)

Château d'Etroyes - Mercurey Les Velley 1er Cru 2015 (Magnum)

3/5 (1 review)

"This 2015 comes from young vines hand-harvested at the very beginning of September, destemmed and macerated for a fortnight. Its majestic ruby color blends red fruits (cherry and raspberry) with peppery notes, nuanced with vanilla, licorice and menthol. Harmony is already present on the palate: rich, full-bodied, supported by silky tannins and a persistent finish. Concentration and the nobility of the terroir are the hallmarks of this bottle made for laying down". ( Guide Hachette des Vins 2019)
