As prices in the Côte d’Or reach ever higher levels, we are delighted to have made this new discoveries in the hamlet of Touches in Mercurey. The Tupinier family have been making wine in the appellation since 1770. The domaine now takes its name from them and the late Jacques Tupinier’s son-in-law, Manu Bautista. Manu’s presence fills a room, he has a passion for the domaine and family. With no children of his own, he has employed his sister’s two children who will in turn succeed him. He likes to destalk all the fruit and, following a long cold maceration for the colour and flavour, will do a gentle fermentation over a period of two to three weeks. The estate’s style shows off a harmonious richness and confidence.Read less
