The Mercurey Les Montots 2024 give the impression of a serious wine. Even if this is partly true based on the ageing in barrel with 60% whole bunches and the fact that it has not digested it fully, it remains a wine with beautiful, rich substance without excess, whose aromatic bouquet recalls stone fruits.
One could almost speak of "dark tannins," in the sense of high-quality, solid tannins.
This is a balanced wine with an ample character, brightness in the fruit, and a touch of acidity that tightens the wine toward a mineral finish.
To drink in a year or wait between three to five years.
