Les Saumonts 1er Cru 2020 is an exceptional vintage for Côte Chalonnaise wines and specifically this Mercurey. The wine has plenty of structure, earth tones and maintains a bright acidity to be enjoyed now or for years to come.
Since 2008, Guillaume and Aude have worked painstakingly to improve the quality of their wines, converting to organic farming practices and experimenting with biodynamics. The domaine’s philosophy is “maximum work in the vineyards for minimum intervention in the cuverie.” This has translated to wines that are first and foremost true to their terroir.
