Domaine Menand
Mercurey, to the south of Beaune, is the most important appellation in Burgundy's Côte Chalonnaise. Growing the same grape varieties as in the famous Côte d'Or, it constitutes one of the finest wine-growing areas of Burgundy, yet few people have ever heard of it.
When we first discovered the Côte Chalonnaise over 20 years ago, it was our search for good red burgundy at sensible prices that led us here. However, we fell in love not only with its wines, but also with its friendly, down-to-earth people, and it remains one of our favourite areas. We have made many friends here, and the wines are still, amazingly, great value for money.
It was our old friend Jean-Claude Cogny, former owner of the Hôtellerie du Val d'Or in Mercurey who first suggested we visit Philippe and Fabienne Menand, whose domaine is not far from the hotel. We have many things to thank Jean-Claude Cogny for - and Domaine Menand is top of the list.
