Armand Heitz Mersault 2020 750ml

Armand Heitz has made enormous strides in the relatively short time he has been in control of the family domaine. Formed in the 1980's as Domaine Heitz-Lochardet, since 2019 the wines have been labelled as Domaine Armand Heitz to better reflect how much progress Armand has made since began the winemaking following his studies in 2011. His viticulture philosophy is holistic, with permaculture and even livestock on the property ensuring a strong biodiversity for his vines. Winemaking is classic, including whole cluster fermentations, and the resultant wines are expressive and pure in style.

The main characteristic of this terroir is the significant presence of pebbles. The proximity to a former quarry is therefore no coincidence. The clay content is low and the source rock sometimes outcrops. These characteristics make it possible to produce rich, powerful, mineral and precise wines.
