* 2005 Château de Mercey Mercurey Domaine Rodet - France, Burgundy, Côte Chalonnaise, Mercurey (4/12/2008)
The nice folks at the SAQ happened to have a bottle open.....
A lovely nose with strawberry jam, cassis, underscored with mint. Quite full and meaty on the palate with a nice balance of acidity. Slight bitter aftertaste. This bottle had been opened for at least a day and a half. I was told that it showed even better just after opening. This is the first burg in a while that I have really enjoyed. At just under $27 I would say this represents a good buy.
