Mercurey Le Chatelet Domaine Philippe Garrey 2020
Domaine Philippe Garrey crafts wines of Burgundian precision from Mercurey and the Côte de Beaune with quiet excellence. A craftsman of honest convictions, working Pinot Noir into silky, fruit-forward expressions that honour the promise of the Côte Chalonnaise.
Le Châtelet is one of Garrey's Mercurey Premier Cru bottlings, grown on clay-limestone soils. The 2020 should show ripe cherry and light spice with a soft, silky texture — biodynamic Côte Chalonnaise favouring freshness over extraction.
