Mercurey "Clos du Chateau de Montaigu" 2023 vintage

Elegance and power at once: Mercurey, in the Côte Chalonnaise, yields red pinot noir wines with complex aromas, dominated by red fruit and sometimes evolving toward animal notes. Recognised in 1936, the appellation counts 32 premier cru climats across the communes of Mercurey and Saint-Martin-sous-Montaigu. The Clos du Château de Montaigu, enclosed by walls at the foot of the château ruins, covers 1.9 ha of clay-limestone soils facing east-north-east.

Hand-harvested, fully destemmed and fermented with natural yeasts, the wine macerates for 15 to 20 days and is aged entirely in oak barrels, 20% of them new. The nose shows intense aromas of small wild berries and blackcurrant, with peppery notes; the attack is elegant in youth, the finish long, and with time the wine gains complexity of fruit, pepper and chocolate. Serve at 17 to 18°C, with game, feathered game, red meat or a cheese board; it can be kept 5 to 12 years.

Food pairing

Game, game birds, red meats and a fine cheese board. Young: open 1 hour ahead; older: decant.

Domaine du Meix Foulot

Domaine du Meix Foulot, in Mercurey, stands among the notable estates of the Côte Chalonnaise, held by the de Launay family for eight generations.

An ancestor of the current head of the estate helped establish the Mercurey appellation in 1923. Paul de Launay gave the domaine its own distinct style from 1956 onward, before his daughter Agnès Dewé de Launay took over in 1996. In 2024, she was named "Best Wine Maker" by the magazine Bourgogne Aujourd'hui.

Across some twenty hectares, mostly Mercurey villages and premier cru, the estate follows a clear philosophy: not to make chardonnays or pinots noirs, but wines of Burgundy that express the character of each terroir. The fruit is handled with full respect for its integrity, within a property certified for sustainable farming since 2008 and, since 2022, awarded High Environmental Value level 3.

At Sélection Boudras, we value this fidelity to place and precision, through which each wine tells the story of where it comes from.
