Goedhuis, May 2018
Vincent Charton is a talented young star making a mark in the appellation of Mercurey with his exciting brand of juicy Côte Chalonnaise Pinot Noir. His precocious talents are on full display in this ripe, fruity 2015. The scent of sweet crushed raspberries is followed by a delicious palate of supple hedgerow berry fruit with a little edge of spice. The tannins are ripe and creamy, and are married with the fresh lift of Pinot’s natural acidity. Already drinking superbly.

Region
Mercurey
Located in the heart of the Cote Chalonnaise, Mercurey has the largest area under vine and produces the most structured wines in the district. A little white is produced, but it is robust earthy reds from Pinot Noir grown on limestone and marl soil that are most interesting. In the 16th Century Henri IV's lover Gabrielle d'Estrees was a fan, although the King himself preferred neighbouring Givry.
