Tasting note

I adored the 2017 Mercurey 1er Cru Les Champs Martin just after it was bottled, and this reencounter confirmed its very high quality. Wafting from the glass with scents of crisp orchard fruit, green mango and white flowers, framed by subtle hints of almonds and hazelnuts, it's medium to full-bodied, satiny and enveloping, with lively acids, superb concentration and a long, precise finish. While it's still young, it has a glorious future ahead of it.

Score: 94
