2019 Domaine Meunier Mercurey 1er Cru Rouge

Jérôme and Gaëlle Meunier both worked in the wine world before starting their own vineyard, Jérôme as ‘Régisseur’ of a domaine in the Côte de Beaune and Gaëlle was in charge of a wine laboratory. They have bought various parcels of land in and around Mercurey over the years and in 2007 bottled their first vintage under their own label. In 2011 after another winemaker retired they took over 4h of vines in Puligny-Montrachet to complete their estate.

The Mercurey 1er Cru Rouge has an intense colour and lovely black fruit notes of blackcurrant and black cherry. Perfect to drink with red meats in a sauce and can be kept for 5 to 10 years after bottling.
