Mercurey 1er Cru has an intense, deep ruby color. In the nose, the aromas open with notes of forest fruit (blackberries, wild strawberries), which enhance the quality of barrels selected for aging. On the palate we find a cascade of fruits such as cherry and black currant with a hint of hazelnut. At the end, all the aromas of a wooden barrel – vanilla and chocolate enrich the fruity taste, leaving a long aftertaste. Very good aging potential.
