Produced by Natalie Juillot et Jean-Claude Theulot, this juicy, ultra-ripe Old World Burgundian Pinot Noir from the district of Mercurey in the Côte Chalonnaise offers juicy aromas of fleshy ripe cherry and dark spice. Medium-bodied, supple and delicious with a long finish. Pair with roast chicken.

Reviews and Ratings

L.J. Palmer WSET 3 rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Lovely ruby wine from Mercurey in the Côte Chalonnaise of Burgundy. Wonderful aroma of juicy red cherries, with raspberry, vanilla, and a mineral note. The wine was aged for 12 months in oak, maximum of 20% new barrels, in order to preserve aromatic freshness of the grapes. The wine is dry, rich and fruity, with soft tannins and balanced acidity. In the mouth the juicy red cherry taste predominates, almost as if fresh from the tree , along with the vanilla, mineral note and raspberry. A great pleasure to drink; just hitting its stride at 5 years!
This Pinot Noir from Theulot Juillot Vieilles Vignes (2015) is from around Mercurey in the warmer Côte Chalonnaise wine region in Burgundy. Wine grapes for this wine were sourced from 30 and 20 year old vines grown in chalk and clay soils unique to this area. Domaine Emile Juillot is currently operated by Emile's granddaughter Nathalie and her husband Jean-Claude. They began overseeing operations for the Domaine in 1987 but didn't change the name until 2007. - Community Wine Reviews
