Rated estate (2009 guide) Selected (Please note that this guide is a ranking, and as such, all the estates listed here—even those without a star—represent, in our view, the pinnacle of French winemaking.)
About the estate:
"This major estate, owned by the Devillard family, is something of a flagship for the family, which also owns the Domaine des Perdrix in the Côte de Nuits. This fairly large vineyard is fortunate enough to have half of its plots located in six Premier Crus of Mercurey."
