Profile

The 2021 Philippe Le Hardi Mercurey Vieilles Vignes is a standout Pinot Noir from Burgundy’s Côte Chalonnaise, offering depth, freshness, and classic regional charm. Sourced from 40-year-old vines on limestone-rich soils, this wine showcases vibrant red fruits, subtle spice, and fine minerality, all wrapped in a silky, medium-bodied structure. Aged for over a year in French oak barrels, it opens with aromas of cherry, raspberry, and blood orange, followed by earthy notes and polished tannins that lead to a long, elegant finish.

This vintage has been widely praised, earning 92 points from James Suckling, who highlighted its “sleek, savory” palate and gentle complexity, and a Gold Medal (95 points) at the Decanter World Wine Awards, affirming its standout quality within Burgundy's village-level wines. With a balance of ripe fruit and finesse, it’s ready to enjoy now, yet structured enough to age gracefully for another 5–7 years. A versatile food wine, it pairs beautifully with roast duck, mushroom risotto, or pork tenderloin, and is an exceptional value from one of Burgundy’s most historic estates.
