Profile
メルキュレに拠点を構えるルヴェール・バロー（ピカール）は、この村のテロワールを象徴する2つのプルミエ・クリュを専門に手掛けるドメーヌである。所有する畑はすべてメルキュレ村内に位置しており、総保有数は2つと非常に限定的だが、そのいずれもが一級格付けという贅沢な構成を誇る。主要なラインナップは、村を代表する著名な一級畑であるクロ・デ・バローとレ・コンバンの2銘柄に集約されている。グラン・クリュの保有はないものの、コート・シャロネーズ地区において重要な役割を果たすメルキュレの個性を、厳選されたプルミエ・クリュを通じて緻密に表現している。少数精鋭の畑に注力することで、その土地が持つ潜在能力を最大限に引き出すことに重きを置いた、堅実かつ専門性の高い造り手といえる。
