About the wine

Tasting Notes

Producer

Domaine Denis Mortet is one of Gevrey-Chambertin’s leading estates. Now led by Arnaud Mortet, the domaine is known for meticulous vineyard work, low yields and polished, intensely detailed Pinot Noir that combines depth with increasingly refined extraction.

How it is made

Hand-picked Pinot Noir is partly destemmed and fermented with indigenous yeasts, then matured for around 18 months in oak. Production is extremely small, at roughly 1,500 bottles.

Vineyard & terroir

This cuvée blends three small premier-cru parcels—Cherbaudes, Petite Chapelle and Bel Air—totalling around 0.25 hectares. Roughly 50-year-old vines grow across red chalky soils, gravel and steep limestone close to Clos de Bèze.
