Here the wood treatment is no longer subtle though neither is it invasive on the decidedly ripe aromas of poached plum, cassis and discreet earth nuances. The lush, suave and exceptionally rich medium-bodied flavors possess excellent volume on the lightly mineral-inflected finish. This somewhat woody effort is sufficiently forward that it could be enjoyed young or easily held for mid-term cellaring.

Layered and enveloping, the 2019 Mercurey 1er Cru Clos du Roi is a medium to full-bodied, velvety and vibrant wine evocative of sweet berry fruit, plums, orange rind and dried flowers. This is an especially charming Clos du Roi that will offer a broad drinking window.
