Pierre Meurgey is a fourth generation winemaker now bottling some incredibly wines under his own name. His Les Chaliots is medium to full-bodied, with a silky texture and finely integrated tannins. Flavours of ripe red and dark fruits are complemented by hints of licorice, forest floor, and a touch of minerality. The wine finishes with length and persistence, balancing richness with fresh acidity. Ideal with classic French dishes such as coq au vin, beef bourguignon, or duck confit. It also pairs well with game meats, roasted root vegetables, or hard cheeses like Comté or aged Gruyère.
