A light Ruby red in colour. Scents of red fruits like strawberry and light cherry, some sappiness. A light to medium weight palate which was soft and fresh. Short term uncomplicated drinking. A Monopole from Faiveley. Tasted the last bottle 18 weeks later on 21st January 2020 with the same unimpressive notes. I guess you don’t get much for $55 in Burgundy. Reduced the score to 88 points.

Dec 5th, 2015Medium ruby colored, the 2018 Faiveley Mercurey La Framboisière is proof that excellent wines can be made from that lesser known appelation. Offering a delicate scent of rose pedal, fresh red cherry and strawberry, dried herbs, cedar wood and a touch of smoke, this medium bodied Pinot Noir is very well balanced by fresh acidity, good fruit concentration and ripe, fine grained tannins. This is a rock solid effort from Faiveley. Drink now until 2035.
