Domaine Bruno Lorenzon Mercurey 1er Cru Clos des Champs Martin Cuvée Carline 2016 : A Pure and Structured Burgundy with Precision and Depth

Domaine Bruno Lorenzon Mercurey 1er Cru Clos des Champs Martin Cuvée Carline 2016 from Bruno Lorenzon is a finely crafted Pinot Noir from the Côte Chalonnaise in Burgundy. Produced from a carefully selected Premier Cru parcel on limestone and marl soils, this wine reflects Lorenzon’s meticulous, low-intervention approach and his reputation for producing some of the most precise and terroir-driven wines in Mercurey. The 2016 vintage, marked by low yields and concentrated fruit, delivers both intensity and elegance.

In the glass, it shows a bright ruby red color with clear transparency. The nose is highly expressive, opening with red cherry, strawberry, and raspberry, followed by deeper notes of blackberry, violets, and subtle earthy spice. There is also a refined layer of oak influence, adding hints of vanilla, cocoa, and gentle toast.

On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with silky yet structured tannins. The fruit is pure and focused, driven by red berries and darker cherry tones, supported by fresh acidity that gives lift and precision. Layers of earth, spice, and mineral tension build through the mid-palate, creating a wine that is both energetic and deeply composed. The finish is long, elegant, and slightly saline with lingering red fruit and fine-grained structure.

Critics have praised the Carline 2016 for its depth, energy, and aging potential, with scores reaching into the mid-90s. It is considered one of Lorenzon’s more structured and serious wines, requiring time in bottle to fully open and reveal its complexity.
