Domaine De L Eveche Mercurey Les Ormeaux Chardonnay 2021 is a small‑production white Burgundy from Mercurey in the Côte Chalonnaise, offering a rich, textural style that still speaks clearly of its limestone soils. This Mercurey Les Ormeaux Chardonnay 2021 shows the domaine’s focus on traditional, terroir‑driven winemaking with careful oak handling for complexity rather than heaviness.​

In the glass you will see a golden hue with green flashes, leading into lifted citrus and stonefruit layered over a very present woody, smoky note from quality oak élevage. The palate is full‑bodied and powerful, with volume, a savoury, smoky drive and firm structure that will appeal to lovers of serious white Burgundy.​

This style begs for rich food – think lobster or scallops with butter sauce, roast chicken with herbs, creamy pasta or mushroom risotto, and soft, creamy cheeses like brie or camembert. It is an ideal bottle for a long lunch, where its weight and texture match generous, flavour‑packed dishes from the grill or oven.
