MercureyLes Montots

  • Description

    Les Montots is situated on fairly steep slope with southern exposure, planted with a selection of Pinot Noir vines from Nuits-Saint-Georges chosen for teir aromatic qualities and moderate yield.
    Les Montots is a Mercurey of its own kind, structured and viforous, deep with a dark ruby color.
    It will open up gradually with age, revealing the breadth of its complexity only after five to seven years. Depending on the vintage and your cellar, it will age and develop for fifteen to twenty years.
    serve at aound 64°F with red meat or game.
    Many cheeses will go well with les Montots but follow once again the caveat against soft cheeses like Camembert, Brie and Vacherin.

  • Wine tasting

    The palate deploys dense aromas of red fruits with powerful tannins soften by discreet oak. This gives it texture once again salivating making the wine supple and juicy at the same time. It needs time for everything to harmonise.
    Requires few years before it can be enjoyed in order to leave time to the wine to connect the Pinot Noir fruit with the expression of its terroir.
