Mercurey Rouge | Local Wine Appellation From Saône-et-Loire, France | TasteAtlas

Mercurey Rouge

Mercurey is a French appellation located in the Côte Chalonnaise region of Burgundy that produces full-bodied ruby red wines from Pinot Noir grapes. These wines are usually round and smooth with typical notes of red fruit reminiscent of cherries, strawberries, and raspberries, which are often complemented by a spicy finish.


With age, characteristic red fruit notes tend to develop into tobacco, undergrowth, truffle, or cocoa. These wines can match rich grilled, roasted, or braised dishes made with beef, lamb, or pork. They can also work well with soft or hard cheese varieties.
