Mercurey Les Vignes Blanches Qvevris Red 2022

Fréderic Cossard


The "Les Vignes Blanches" vintage is an organic and natural red wine from the Bourgogne-Mercurey appellation. It is produced by Frédéric Cossard, exclusively from Pinot Noir and aged in terracotta containers (qvevris).

Vinification


Les Vignes Blanches is a climat in the Mercurey appellation with clay-limestone soil. Frédéric Cossard vinified and aged it in qvevri (Georgian-style buried jars), which gives it a patina, rounds it out, and accentuates its velvety texture and depth. It is aged for one year.

Tasting


Fresh, wild, and intense, this Mercurey "Les Vignes Blanches" is a pleasure to drink with abandon. Morello cherries, black fruits, cherry, raspberry, complexity on the nose, giving way to floral then mineral and roasted notes. On the palate, there is plenty of fruit, sap, breadth, and density, with silky, melted tannins of great finesse, completely devoid of harshness. Long, fruity, and distinguished finish. Made for the rib steak, the beef fillet, the roast duck, the fine charcuterie.

Learn more about Frédéric Cossard and the Domaine de Chassorney


Frédéric Cossard and the domaine de Chassorney give the floor in organic and natural mode to Burgundy wines (and moreover), not distorted by agricultural chemistry, according to the style and convictions of this winegrower and merchant. Wherever the grapes come from, his wines bear the Cossard brand, both classic and creative.

Between viticulture and trade


Frédéric Cossard created the domaine de Chassorney in 1996: initially a few ares of vines in Saint-Romain, Auxey-Duresses and Savigny-lès-Beaune, and currently ten hectares spread across the Nuits-Saint-Georges, Pommard, Volnay, Bourgogne-Hautes-Côtes-de-Beaune and Bourgogne appellations. In 2006, he created his own trading house and buys organic grapes from the greatest climates of Burgundy, but also from Jura, Languedoc and elsewhere.

A solid commitment to nature


At Frédéric Cossard, the work of the soil and the vines is done naturally: plowing by horse, biodynamics, no chemical fertilizers or weedkillers. The harvest, by hand, is carried out at full maturity. Frédéric Cossard's vintages are rare and sought-after, wines that are always highly anticipated but which sometimes require waiting.
