Description
"Powerful, clean and well balanced wines arise from the ideally exposed vines of this Monopole. Covering 6 ha, the clayey-limestone soil, rich in iron and clay with few pebbles, rests on deep ground. This premier Cru, the furthest north-east of Mercurey, offers a slightly rustic, raw style that is both silky and warm. Distinctive bouquet characterised by aromas of black and red fruits, intensified by woody and smoky notes. The wine reveals delicious mouthfilling backed by beautiful fullness and velvety tannins. A harmonious combination that produces a silky, warm wine that perfectly reflects the nature of its terroir." - Winemaker Notes
"A robust and refreshing purple colour. A little burnt rubber reduction straight after bottling. Plenty of fruit here on the palate, raspberry seedless, plenty of energy, and a very good fruit acid balance." - Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy
