Product Notes

Domaine du Château Philippe le Hardi's Mercurey 1er Cru Les Puillets is a refined Burgundy wine that exemplifies excellence in French viticulture. From the renowned Mercurey region, this 1er Cru boasts a complex bouquet of red fruits, a touch of oak, and earthy undertones. Its balanced structure, fine tannins, and rich flavours reveal a careful maturation process. A distinguished, medium-bodied Pinot Noir, it offers a pleasant finish, paired wonderfully with robust meats and cheeses. With its deep colour and persistent aroma, this wine is a clear testament to the Château's dedication to quality and tradition.

Tasting Notes

This wine is a deep garnet in colour. The nose is intense with aromas of blackberry and hints of spice and cedar. It is powerful on the palate, with flavours of black fruits and soft spices that fill the mouth, beautifully balanced by elegant tannins that linger on the finish.
