mercurey blanc premier cru
Les Veleys
This cuvée produces a wine that lingers on your palate and quickly develops with floral notes. Although supple, the wine is fleshy without ever being heavy. Full-bodied and rich, it is easy to drink and maintains a perfect balance between acidity and structure.
