Description

Flavour and aroma Maison Faiveley's Mercurey Rouge La Framboisière 2023 is a refined red wine, with notes of cherry and blackcurrant and hints of spice.

The texture is silky and the finish long and persistent, leaving a lasting impression of refinement and complexity.

Grape variety Made from Pinot Noir grapes, this wine benefits from the finesse and complexity characteristic of this Burgundy variety. The vines, grown on clay-limestone soils, benefit from optimum sunshine and a favourable microclimate, allowing the grapes to ripen slowly and evenly.

Terroir The Mercurey terroir, located in Burgundy's Côte Chalonnaise region, is renowned for its clay-limestone soils and temperate climate. The vines benefit from optimum exposure to the sun, helping the grapes to ripen to perfection. This unique terroir gives the wine its distinctive characteristics, including its solid tannic structure and complex aromas. The mineral-rich soils and sunny exposure contribute to the wine's complexity and finesse.
