Textbook. Raspberry, saddle leather. A sappy quality that suggests both Cru Bojo and N. Rhône. Dark and ripe. First-rate. #mercurey #pinotnoir #cotechalonnaise — 8 years ago
Overwhelming. Noticeably barrel-fermented & raised in lots of new oak, but lively, nervy and typically exotic: kaffir, lemongrass, mango, banana. Oily and ultra-long on the finish. #mercurey #chardonnay — 9 years ago
Red apple and red cherry meat with cranberry and raspberry and a pinch of smoky black salt tantalizing the nose. Tart raspberry dried violets, rose petal, red apple peel, blood orange. Tart and tangy, with a pointy end. .

Burgundy from the lower end of Cote Chalonnaise. It’s light and earthy with a soft nose of mushrooms from an enchanted forest. Oh, so good! Love this Mercurey. #mercurey #burgundywine #bourgogne #frenchwines — 8 years ago
Ruby and garnet with pink rim variation. Strong clarity and light appearance. Light tearing. Delicate notes on the nose - cherry jam, strawberry preserves, vanilla bean, and almond. Medium acidity on palate. #côtechalonnaise #mercurey #louismax #closlamarche — 6 years ago

More perfume and more fruit than the Clos du Chapitre. Yes it’s more expensive but it’s worth it. One of the best Mercurey I’ve had. I’m not usually a fan but I found balance and elegance in this one. #mercurey #premiercru — 2 days ago
