Burgundy, France

1 hectare of 30 year old vines around the commune of Mercurey. Matures for 10 months in a combination of barrels (25% new) and stainless steel cuve.

3 parcels, totalling 1.5 hectare of 60 year old vines, facing east and south on clay limestone. Matured in oak barrels (30% new) for 12 months.

Produced by the excellent Bernard Vallet in a very good vintage. This is the house rouge of Vallet Freres. Fresh, juicy berry fruit.

Aromas of black and red summer berries, liquorice, light earth and baking spices. Smooth, with medium tannins; flavors of red berries, juicy plum.

A wine with a powerful and firm structure. The fruity expression (very “Pinot”) is integrated into the suave tannins of high quality and the finish persists with a clear minerality. Vinified according to the vintage with 50% whole bunches, aging lasts around 12 months in 20% new barrels and 6 months in vats.

Deliciously fresh with lovely white peach, nectarine, greengage and hints of kiwi fruit, this is succulent, attractive and juicy with bags of character. There's a lot to like! Drink now or age for up to 5 years.

Classic Pinot with aromas of red berries, spices and a hint of vanilla. The palate is just as fruity with refreshing sour cherries, delicious red berries, crisp acidity and supple tannins. Drink now or keep for 5-8 years to see exactly what these wines can achieve with age.

The perfectly ripened grapes of these 55-year-old vines produce rounded assertive tannins, with frank minerality, and a saline finish and the wild aromas of youth give way to a more complex expression (fruity and floral)

The vines grow on several clay-limestone soils, producing a fully rounded wine, in which you will find energetic tannins, fruity aromas (raspberry), and spices.

Delicate sweet strawberry fruit, fresh acidity and a clean, vibrant palate. A restrained style, with elegance and a savoury, autumnal finish.
