Domaine Belleville Mercurey Champs Roin 2023The Domaine Belleville Mercurey "Champ Roin" 2023 is a Pinot Noir from Burgundy's Cte Chalonnaise, with a ruby purple hue with aromas of raspberry, blackberry, and spice, leading to a medium bodied, fleshy palate with toasted notes and a long, fruity finish, showing freshness from its north facing clay limestone terroir and balance from varied vineyard parcels, aged in French oak. It's structured and very appealing.

The grapes are sourced from a single vineyards area

Soft tannins and fresh fruit profile

this one is like velvet
