Les Colombiers - Mercurey Rouge 2024 - Red Wine - 75cl APPELLATION: AOP Mercurey GRAPE VARIETY: 100% Pinot Noir TASTING NOTES This Mercurey red reveals a vibrant ruby color. On the nose, it offers an expressive bouquet dominated by the aromas of Pinot Noir: frank notes of small red fruits (wild strawberry, morello cherry) evolving towards pepper. On the palate, it is both round and well structured. The tannins are fine and silky, and the whole is distinguished by a beautiful balance between a fruity richness and a fresh finish that invites the second sip. VINIFICATION After rigorous sorting, fermentation takes place in vats with controlled temperatures, promoting the extraction of berry colors and aromas. The wine is then aged in French oak barrels for a significant period, where it gains complexity, its tannins refining to give it its famous structure and aging potential. FOOD AND WINE PAIRINGS Its strong structure makes it an ideal ally for fine dining. It goes perfectly with grilled or roasted red meats, game (stew, terrine) and poultry in sauce. On the platter, it is ideal with mature cheeses, especially soft cheeses like Époisses or Reblochon. PERFECT SERVING Serve around 16°C.
