Color
Muted garnet red with clear violet reflections.
Nose
Cool with exuberant fresh, dark berry fruit, the 2015 Mercurey "La Plante Chassey" shows itself at the start. Even though it is already accessible, it still hides a lot of development potential and a very complex structure behind this abundance of fruit. With the necessary oxygen contact, wet stones, graphite, peppery notes, wood smoke and green notes of laurel, boxwood and cassis leaf are hinted at. With the necessary maturity, its earthy character will come more and more to the fore.
Palate
The 2015 Mercurey "La Plante Chassey" is taken on the tongue full of expectation. There, it refreshes and seduces us with the same pronounced fruit of the nose and a light-footed, buoyant and at the same time powerful structure. Acidity and tannin are extremely balanced and at the same time incredibly animating. The perfect food companion that gives way to the food and accompanies you pleasantly.
