The 2015 Mercurey Premier Cru “Les Vellées” is a red wine from Burgundy, produced in the Côte Chalonnaise, in the Mercurey region, from 100% Pinot Noir. The cuvée comes from the Les Vellées climat, one of the commune’s recognized Premier Cru sites, situated on clay- and limestone-rich soils that are favorably oriented toward the sun and promote full ripening of the grapes as well as good aromatic complexity.
Domaine Tupinier-Bautista, run by Manu Bautista and his family, combines Burgundian tradition and precision in the vineyard with meticulous methods in the cellar: hand-harvesting, fermentation, and controlled aging in wooden barrels to highlight the fruit and terroir.
On the nose, this wine is fruity and fragrant, with notes of ripe red fruits such as cherry and raspberry, interwoven with spicy nuances and a hint of underbrush—typical of Burgundy Pinot Noir. The aromatic concentration is good, supported by a lively freshness that keeps the profile elegant and precise.
This Mercurey Premier Cru pairs very well with pan-seared or braised red meat dishes, game, poultry in rich sauces, and semi-aged cheeses. Served at about 15–16 °C and, if possible, allowed to breathe a bit, it reveals its full complexity.
