Tasting notes
The 2019 Château de Chamirey Mercurey 1er Cru En Sazenay is a fine-boned, elegant Pinot Noir from a steep, limestone-rich site in the Côte Chalonnaise. Fresh red fruit and floral notes are framed by bright acidity and a signature saline finish — a precise, terroir-driven expression of Mercurey at its best.
More About The Winery
Built in the early 18th century, Château de Chamirey holds a privileged position overlooking the vineyards of Mercurey in the Côte Chalonnaise. The domaine spans 37 hectares across a mosaic of soils and microclimates, reflecting the diversity and depth of the appellation.
In 1934, the visionary Marquis de Jouennes became one of the first in Mercurey to bottle wines directly at the estate, setting a new standard for quality. His son-in-law, Bertrand Devillard, expanded the domaine further into Mercurey’s finest terroirs, bringing it to its present size of 95 acres (around 37 hectares).
Today, the estate is run by Amaury and Aurore Devillard, the fifth generation of this Burgundian wine family, who continue the legacy of crafting refined, terroir-driven Pinot Noir and Chardonnay that showcase the best of Mercurey.
