since the 1970s, the house of louis latour has exported its expertise to the hillsides of the ardèche. The weather, unlike Burgundy, is more favorable. Mercurey covers an area of 645 hectares. The grape variety for the reds is pinot noir. Mercurey is the most important wine-producing village on the Côte Chalonnaise. More robust on marl soils, finer on stony soils, the wines are generally solid and suitable for laying down. Red wines are both elegant and powerful, with tannins that are present but become rounder with age. Complex aromas are dominated by notes of red fruit, evolving towards animal notes.
