Mercurey Champ Pillot 2020 Domaine Roux - Burgundy Red B03

Handpicked harvest and first fermentation in stainless steel tank for 15 days. Second fermentation in oak barrels, 20% new casks. Maturation during 9-10 months in the cellar for aging, stored in barrels.

Deep, profound ruby in color.
Crisp-fruited, and it evokes strawberry, raspberry, and cherry. Age brings in notes of underbrush, spicy tobacco notes, and cocoa beans.
Rich, full-bodied, and chewy. In its youth, the tannins of this wine lend it a mineral firmness. When aged, it is attractively rounded and meaty.
