Tasting notes:Bright and shiny red color with purple tints. After aeration, the nose is developping aromas of fresh red fruits, completed by floral notes such as violet. On the palate, the attack is straightforward and chiseled. Nice balance between acidity and roundness. Tanins are fresh, allowing an elegant and fresh finish.
About the winery: Built in the early 18th Century, Château de Chamirey has a unique position on the Mercurey vineyard. The Domaine consists in 37 hectares reflecting the diverse soils and micro climates found within the appellation. In 1934, the Marquis de Jouennes, as a forerunner, decides to bottle the wines of Château de Chamirey, at the Domaine. Then, his son-in-law, Bertrand Devillard, carried on his work and extended the Domaine in the best terroirs of Mercurey, to reach its present size of 95 acres. Nowadays, Amaury et Aurore Devillard represent the 5th generation of Burgundy people, wine’s men and women.
