"This Côte Chalonnaise village gets its name from the God Mercury (God of Merchants). The story goes that a temple was erected here in honour of this deity. This climat La Framboisière produces wines with real character and is one of Faiveley’s highly reputed wines. This wine has a really fruity powerful nose, which mixes greedy red and black fruit aromas and woody notes. But it is on the palate that it shows its full potential, where it is powerful and fleshy with flavours of raspberry and other very ripe red fruits, almost as if we were biting into them. Its structure is powerful, with velvety tannins and a very long and fruity finish." - Notes from Domaine Faiveley. 

"A more elegant and higher-toned nose of fresh red pinot fruit with hints of spice and smoke that continue onto the precise, punchy and energetic flavors that display ample earth tones on the moderately rustic and notably firm finish. This will also require patience for the full character of the wine to emerge. Tasted: Jan 01, 2007 Score: 86-89 Drink: 2012+" - Allen Meadows, Issue 25 Burghound.
