Domaine du Château Philippe Le Hardi Les Puillets Mercurey 1er Cru 2022

Quite a full purple. Just racked and this large cuvée is now assembled … A huge weight on the palate with the rugged structure typical of this vintage – the tannins are not raw but in combination with the acidity they form a fine but firm structure. Drink from 2026-2030. Tasted Oct. 2023. Score – 88-90. (Jasper Morris, MW, insideburgundy.com)
