"Deep, brilliant, ruby red in colour with violet-blue hues. Although the nose remains a bit shy in its youth, the extent of its mineral content, fruit scents (cherry, red currant) and woody aromas beg to be revealed. On the palate its richness bursts forth. It is broad, rich and gamey. This is the very essence of a Mercurey Premier Cru. "
