2020 Mercurey 1er Cru La Chassière, Domaine Vincent et Jean-Pierre Charton
Dry | Red | Still | 14%
This premier cru, in the south of the appellation, is a south-facing sun-trap. It was the first to be picked in 2020, and Vincent has captured the voluminous ripeness and agile freshness of the vintage perfectly. Its character is not unlike a Volnay - red-fruited, with tender fruit core, lacy freshness, and just enough structure to mean it will age brilliantly, but can be enjoyed fairly young too.
Ready: 2023 - 2033
