Château Philippe le Hardi Vieilles Vignes Mercurey 2020

This wine is from an historical estate once owned by Duke Philippe le Hardi, who in 1395 signed into law that Pinot Noir be the primary red grape grown in Burgundy. It has excellent character and balance, with a strong backbone of dark fruit and supple tannins behind a delicate, inviting floral aroma. Enjoy it tonight after a good decant or cellar for at least a decade.
