Description
Marguerite and Émile Juillot work 12 hectares of vines in Mercurey. Marguerite describes the wines as natural traditional Burgundian wines. Hand-harvested from old vines over two plots, growing in clay and limestone soil at south-east exposure, with zero use of chemicals and herbicides. 100% destemmed, and fermented in stainless steel, with more gentle push than punch down of cap and matured in oak for 12 months (25% new oak). This gives us a wine that is gently extracted, with elegant red fruits and a hint of minerality.
