Goedhuis, December 2022
Lemon yellow colour, characters of warm buttered toast and honeysuckle. There is a confident richness kept perfectly in check by its racy freshness. Full, long and instantly ready.

Matthew Jukes, January 2023, Score: 17.5
With considerable flesh and decent tension thanks to greengage-tinged acidity, this is an impressive find, and it has Côte d’Or build-quality for a Côte Chalonnaise price tag. There is more to this wine than meets the eye, so throw the dice here. You will not regret it.

As prices in the Côte d’Or reach ever higher levels, we are delighted to have made this new discoveries in the hamlet of Touches in Mercurey. The Tupinier family have been making wine in the appellation since 1770. The domaine now takes its name from them and the late Jacques Tupinier’s son-in-law, Manu Bautista. Manu’s presence fills a room, he has a passion for the domaine and family. With no children of his own, he has employed his sister’s two children who will in turn succeed him. He likes to destalk all the fruit and, following a long cold maceration for the colour and flavour, will do a gentle fermentation over a period of two to three weeks. The estate’s style shows off a harmonious richness and confidence.Read less

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.
