Albert Bichot Mercurey 2018

The 2018 Albert Bichot Mercurey is a classic Pinot Noir from the Côte Chalonnaise in Burgundy, specifically produced under the Domaine Adélie label. It presents a deep ruby color with an aromatic profile of wild berries, cherry, and raspberry, accented by subtle floral notes of rose and violet and a touch of French oak. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, fleshy, and velvety, offering a smooth structure with harmonious flavors of plum, peach, and a hint of candy. With a well-balanced acidity and a long, aromatic finish, it pairs excellently with roasted red meats, feathered game, or full-flavored cheeses and can be enjoyed now or cellared for three to five years.
