The 2022 Bourgogne Rouge from Domaine Raquillet captures the sun-kissed Pinot Noir of Côte Chalonnaise with bright red-berry aromas and a refined, elegant finish.

François and Emmanuelle Raquillet’s meticulous vineyard work and gentle barrel-ageing deliver a wine of both charm and depth. A versatile bottle for any table.

Pairing Suggestions: Serves beautifully alongside coq au vin, grilled salmon with dill or vegetarian dishes like beetroot tart and goat’s cheese.

Domaine Francois Raquillet

Eleventh-generation vigneron François Raquillet took the reins of his family’s Mercurey estate in 1990, having worked alongside his father since 1984. He and his wife Emmanuelle promptly shifted focus to quality over quantity by reducing yields, introducing premium oak barrels, and hand-sorting every grape. Across their fourteen hectares on the Côte Chalonnaise, they tend clay-limestone soils with integrated pest management and a dedication to ecosystem balance, alternating tillage with cover crops to nurture healthy vines.

Their daughter Jeanne joined in 2018, bringing fresh energy to a domaine already renowned for its rich, precise reds and supple whites. Harvest remains wholly manual, with each cluster rigorously inspected by a six-person team. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel or premium barrels, and the wines - especially their Mercurey Premiers Crus - are prized for depth, elegance and a purity that reflects both terroir and the Raquillet family’s unwavering attention to detail.
