Domaine Corcia - Mercurey Rouge "Chazeaux" 2022
The estate previously known as Domaine de la Vieille Fontaine, was taken over at the beginning of 2021 by the Corcia family. Alain Corcia is a successful négociant based in Savigny les Beaune, specialising in the marketing of great Burgundy wines for over 35 years. Raphael, the youngest son, is the key driver for the takeover of the domaine and is in charge of both the work in the vineyard and in the cellar. Raphael is bursting onto the scene with the 2021 vintage, showing his skills through reimagining the method of cultivation for these vines through biodynamics.
With a surface area of just 0.22ha, the Mercurey “Le Chazeaux” is crafted from vines planted in 1960-1970. Named after some of the best 1st crus of the region, this parcel offers naturally millerand and very concentrated grapes while retaining the elegance and precision of the field!
