Sommelier's Notes

Château d’Etroyes is a 50-hectare estate located in the Mercurey and Rully appellations in eastern France.


The Clos l’Évêque has long been considered one of the best vineyards in Mercurey, especially since the 18th century when it belonged to the Diocese of Chalon-sur-Saône and the wines were used for the bishop’s reception, for which only the absolute finest wines qualified.


The soils here are clay and limestone, with a liberal scattering of small pebbles providing adequate drainage for the vines.


The Bollinger Group has snapped up French wine estate Château d’Etroyes, adding wine from the Burgundy appellations Mercurey and Rully to its roster.


The deal was completed through the Bollinger Group’s winery Domaine Chanson, which it acquired in 1999.


This is one of the classic cuvees – made from whole vineyards as opposed to plots within a vineyard.


There is lovely, lively fruit with delicate freshness in the 2021 vintage with an intriguing cinnamon hint.


The wine is dark in colour with aromas of plum, forest berries, star anise and cocoa, the palate shows exceptional depth and seductive, alluring fruit: rich, ripe flavours of satsuma plum and wild cherries along with hints of musk and five-spice.


The tannins are fine, the acidity vibrant, giving balance to the fruit, texture, and mouthfeel.


The wine displays exceptional length, the spiced-plum fruit a lingering aftertaste.
