This is the first vintage that Château de Chamirey decided to bottle wine from this 3.5-acre vineyard separately. Half went into this bottling, while the other half went into their village Mercurey blend. Although not from a premier cru vineyard, this 2015 tastes like a premier cru wine. An exceptionally glossy texture combined with bright red fruit flavors and a hint of earthiness makes it a delight to drink now.
