Descrizione

The Mercurey Rouge 1er Cru Le Clos Du Roy from Domaine Faiveley is a charming and exquisitely refined red wine that attests to the excellence of Burgundy's winemaking tradition. Made from Pinot Noir grapes, this wine best represents the expression of the Mercurey terroir. It is distinguished by its deep ruby red color and an aromatic bouquet that combines notes of ripe red fruits such as cherry and raspberry with hints of spices and a subtle oak note, stemming from barrel aging that adds complexity without overpowering the freshness of the fruit.

On the palate, the Mercurey Rouge 1er Cru Le Clos Du Roy is robust yet balanced, with fine tannins and a pleasant acidity that promises good aging potential. The finish is persistent, with a resonance of fruits and spices that invites a second sip. This wine pairs splendidly with meat dishes like roast lamb, but it can also be a magnificent complement to aged cheeses.

For the Burgundy wine lover seeking quality and typicity, the Mercurey Rouge 1er Cru Le Clos Du Roy from Domaine Faiveley is a choice that guarantees satisfaction. Enjoy its charm today or let it age to appreciate its evolution in the coming years.

Winery history

The estate has been part of the Faiveley family since its origins: the original holdings were established in the 19th century in Nuits‑Saint‑Georges and the family progressively acquired parcels in Burgundy’s finest climats. Over the generations the domaine expanded its holdings by adding Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards and has maintained a dual role as both a domaine producer and a négociant. Today Erwan and Eve Faiveley lead the estate; in recent years the group has also extended its geographic presence and has begun transitioning to more environmentally friendly practices.

Production philosophy

Highlighting the terroir and the identity of the individual climats, the family adopts an approach focused on fruit quality, agronomic practices increasingly aimed at sustainability, and the use of technologies and experimentation to reduce environmental impact while preserving the character and expressiveness of the wines.

Terroir and vineyards

Vineyards are primarily located in the Côte de Nuits, Côte de Beaune and Côte Chalonnaise, with holdings in Chablis. It owns parcels in numerous Grand Cru and Premier Cru sites and several historic monopoles. It also holds minority interests connected to Pinot Noir production in California.
