In the heart of the Côte Chalonnaise, the Mercurey 1er Cru Blanc “La Mission” from Château de Chamirey reveals all the uniqueness of a rare and sought-after terroir, classified as Premier Cru. This east-facing plot lies on stony clay-limestone soil, ideal for producing a taut, precise and very elegant Chardonnay. The nose opens with refined aromas of ripe white fruits, acacia flowers and lightly toasted notes, brought by subtle aging in oak barrels. On the palate, the mineral freshness is perfectly balanced with a full texture and a persistent, saline and racy finish. Served with shellfish, noble fish or poultry in cream sauce, this 1er Cru offers a luminous and profound expression of Mercurey’s great whites.

Rooted in Burgundy for several generations, the Devillard family embodies a demanding and deeply human vision of wine. Through four iconic estates: Château de Chamirey in the Côte Chalonnaise, Domaine des Perdrix in the Côte de Nuits, Domaine de La Ferté in Givry, and Domaine de La Garenne in the Mâconnais, they deploy expertise passed down with passion from generation to generation. This rare presence, from the north to the south of Burgundy, allows for a subtle and nuanced interpretation of the region’s great terroirs.

Far from passing trends, the Devillards pursue a clear philosophy: to reveal the identity of each climat with precision, balance, and elegance. Their commitment to respectful viticulture, based on plot-by-plot cultivation, sustainable agriculture, and yield control, demonstrates a deep respect for the vine and its environment.

Each wine thus bears the hallmark of a constant quest for excellence, blending tradition and modernity. True interpreters of their terroir, the Devillard Family invites you to rediscover the richness and diversity of Burgundy through sincere, precise and characterful vintages.
