  Medium (-) ruby colour. Medium and developing nose with ripe raspberry, ripe strawberry, forest floor, wet leaves, charred wood and mushrooms. Medium taste of ripe raspberry, ripe strawberry, ripe red cherry, forest floor, wet leaves, charred wood and mushrooms. Long and dry finish. High acidity. Medium (-) tannins. Medium body. A very good single vineyard Mercurey Rouge that was surprisingly younger than the 2017 vintage, yet more developed than the 2019. Needed an hour of air to open. Drink now or over the next four years. Goes well with duck, pork or veal.

  Slightly acidic but fruit has developed a lot and I wish I had more.

  Mature strawberry aromas. Relatively soft and chewy on the palate, with ripe fruit. Decent Mercurey, not more.
