Mercurey Rouge 2007/09 - Mallard Gaulin, Burgundy

Elements of black fruits, leather and liquorice on the nose. Quite firm with good structure and mature tannins.

In 1923 one man fell in love with a very special place: Château de Corton and the Corton Hill on which it proudly stands - “The Hill of Miracles”. Château de Corton is the only standing Chateau classified as Grand Cru in the Côte de Beaune.

The Corton Hill vineyards produce truly rare and marvellous Burgundies which are at the very peak of the region’s finest wines. They now offer a wider selection of Grands Crus of Corton than any other producer and are considered a specialist of Corton being based at the famous Chateau de Corton.

Now rated Top 10 Great Burgundy Houses from Decanter Magazine, and mentioned by Jancis in her recent FT weekend column as the one of the top 4 most improved and recommended Burgundy Houses, Corton Hill vineyards produce truly rare and marvellous Burgundies, which are at the very peak of the region’s finest wines.
