Les Heritiers Saint-Genys Mercurey 1er Clos Marcilly Monopole, 2020

In 2011, Patrice du Jeu, a Parisien restaurateur and wine lover decided to join his uncle and bought Le Clos Marcilly, in Mercurey as well as a Chassagne-Montrachet property.

Since 2017, animal traction has been reintroduced for the ploughing and the winery has been renovated to benefit from the best vinification techniques.

Clos Marcilly is the emblematic vineyard of the estate, in monopoly since 2016. It comes from an exceptional plot of Mercurey. Entirely enclosed by walls, this parcel of 7.5 hectares in total is thus protected from the greatest frosts. The presence of a natural spring allows it not to suffer too much from drought.
