Domaine P & M Jacqueson
Domaine Jacqueson consists now of 18 hectares of vines, mostly in Rully, but also 5 in Mercurey and some in Bouzeron. The grapes are harvested by hand and vinified in classical fashion, before an élevage in barrel (up to 25% new wood). Under Paul, and now by his children, Marie and Pierre, the domaine has become adept at a sophisticated use of barrels, the élevage here is key to the quality they consistently achieve, and this rubs off on the négociant 'Cuvée Sélection' which is always beautifully finished.
Description
An impressive Pinot Noir from Domaine P&M Jacqueson, with aromas of maraschino cherry, plum and tilled earth. The palate is medium to full, with ripe red and blue fruit that coat silky varietal led tannins.
