AboutDomaine du Meix Foulot
Domaine du Meix Foulot has remained in one family for over two centuries, on the slopes below the ruins of the Château de Montaigu. Paul de Launay established the modern estate in 1956. His daughter Agnès Dewé de Launay returned in 1996 and now directs the property as its eighth generation.
The twenty-hectare holding lies mainly in Mercurey and includes village and Premier Cru sites. Agnès and her team adapt soil cultivation, leaf management and yields to each vineyard parcel.

French Red
Redcurrant and half-ripe strawberry appear in a cool, fresh and medium-bodied red wine. The wine is dry and refreshing, with a straight, harmonious finish. Bright garnet colour accompanies cherry and raspberry, alongside fine, delicate oak. The tannins are fine and slightly firm in youth, and maturation combines tank and barrel over sixteen to eighteen months.
