2020 Domaine Michel Juillot Clos des Barraults Rouge Mercurey 1er Cru 1.5L Magnum, Burgundy, France
$99.99
100% Pinot Noir. From 20-, 35-, and 43-year-old vines planted on clay limestone soils covered with hard marble pebbles. The grapes are 100% destemmed prior to fermentation, followed by aging for 18 months in oak barrels (30% new oak). Succulent and mouth coating, with medium-bodied flavors that are intensely mineral-driven, all wrapped in a wonderfully long and well-balanced finale
