Tasting notes: “There are fully 60,000 bottles of the 2017 Mercurey Blanc, a pretty wine that bursts from the glass with scents of pear, green apple and pastry cream, followed by a medium to full-bodied, pure and fleshy palate that's buttressed by racy acidity and concludes with a mouthwatering finish.”William Kelley, Wine Advocate

How to Enjoy: With salty cake, Lorraine quiche, tartar or white meats.
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.
