In 2013, a group of Burgundy wine lovers purchased Chanzy with a group of investors and have since added a second holding in Côte Chalonnaise and Côte de Beaune for a total of 163 acres planted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith full control of production from vineyard to bottling, Chanzy’s impressive range spans 40 appellations in 8 villages of Côte Chalonnaise and Côte d’Or. The vineyards are farmed sustainably.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMercurey Clos du Roy 1er Cru Rouge is one of many vineyards in Burgundy carrying the name Clos du Roy thanks to the King designating his best parcels as such. The parcel sits close to the woods and is protected from the wind with excellent exposure, providing consistent ripeness. The wine receives a ten-day cold soak before fermentation and is vinified with 50% whole clusters. Mercurey Clos du Roy 1er Cru Rouge is aged in 100% used 228-liter barrels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“This has the delicacy, moderate acidity and pretty red berry fruit that are typical for good 2021 red Burgundies. The tannins have been cautiously extracted, but they are emphatically dry at the finish where there are notes of licorice and roasted meat.”\u003cbr\u003e— James Suckling, Jul 2023\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVineyard name\u003cbr\u003eClos du Roy\u003cbr\u003eVineyard size\u003cbr\u003e3.77 acres acres\u003cbr\u003eSoil composition\u003cbr\u003eClay and Limestone\u003cbr\u003eExposure:\u003cbr\u003eSoutheastern\u003cbr\u003eBottles produced of this wine:\u003cbr\u003e4,933\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePrefermentation Technique:\u003cbr\u003eCold Soak\u003cbr\u003eVarietal composition:\u003cbr\u003e100% Pinot Noir\u003cbr\u003eFermentation container:\u003cbr\u003eStainless steel tanks\u003cbr\u003eMaceration technique:\u003cbr\u003epump over and limited punch down\u003cbr\u003eMalolactic fermentation:\u003cbr\u003eYes\u003cbr\u003eSize of aging container:\u003cbr\u003e228L\u003cbr\u003eType of oak:\u003cbr\u003eFrench Oak\u003cbr\u003eLength of aging before bottling:\u003cbr\u003e16 months\u003cbr\u003eAge of Aging Container:\u003cbr\u003e2 years\u003cbr\u003eTotal SO2\u003cbr\u003e81\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAnalytical Data\u003cbr\u003eAlcohol:\u003cbr\u003e13.4 %\u003cbr\u003eDry extract:\u003cbr\u003e26.3 g\/L\u003cbr\u003eTotal SO2\u003cbr\u003e81\u003cbr\u003eResidual sugar:\u003cbr\u003e0.4 g\/L\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Domaine Chanzy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42975670698208,"sku":"103211","price":60.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0649\/9713\/0464\/files\/domaine-chanzy-mercurey-1er-cru-clos-du-roy-rouge_1.jpg?v=1706810388","url":"https:\/\/www.mywineconnection.com\/products\/domaine-chanzy-mercurey-1er-cru-clos-du-roy-rouge-2018-750ml","provider":"My Wine Connection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
