Dom. Theulot-Juillot 2023 Mercurey 1er Cru La Cailloute
A Monopole owned by the family since the early 1950’s, Cailloute stands out for its elevation (almost 300 meters), its distinct soils (red Jurassic limestone) and its privileged south-eastern exposure. The resulting wine always brings a marked finesse to the table, while not stinting in any way on Burgundian generosity. A keeper.
