Nestled in the heart of Burgundy, France, Domaine Viticole Maréchal is a family-run winery with a rich history and a dedication to crafting exceptional wines. The Maréchal family has been tending to their vines in Mercurey with passion and precision for several generations, ensuring that each bottle encapsulates the essence of each cru. The domaine's philosophy is deeply rooted in respect for nature and tradition. They employ sustainable practices in their nine hectares of vineyards, such as using organic fertilizers and maintaining a balanced ecosystem.

The winemaking process is a blend of time-honored methods and modern techniques. The grapes are carefully handpicked and sorted to ensure only the best fruit is used. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled conditions, followed by aging in French oak barrels, only a few of which are new, which adds depth and character to the wines without overpowering the natural flavors.

Wine Region:

Burgundy

Burgundy is but a small land-locked region in the east-central part of France, but it is highly regarded in the world of wines. “Burgundies” (or wines hailing from this region) are usually reds made from pinot noir grapes and whites made from chardonnay grapes. 

The climate is continental, bearing cold winters and hot summers. Vintages are somewhat more important here because of unpredictable weather—rains, hail, and frost are can all happen during harvest time. 

Burgundy is a terroir-driven region (as opposed to producer-driven Bordeaux). Classifications are focused on geography—with 400 types of soil, a great deal of attention is given to the area of origin. This is made obvious by their wine labels, where appellations are more prominent than producers. 

There are 5 primary wine growing areas where more than 100 appellations are present (the highest count of AOCs in France). 

Featured Grape Varieties:
