Côte-de-Nuits

Morey-Saint-Denis

Located at the heart of Côte de Nuits, Morey-Saint-Denis forms a bridge, between the wines of Gevrey-Chambertin to the north and those of Chambolle-Musigny to the south. Most of the appellation’s vineyards are planted with Pinot Noir grapes, producing wines that are typically full-bodied, structured and complex. However, a few parcels are planted with Chardonnay or Pinot Blanc varieties, yielding a rare and interesting white wine, generally quite firm and opulent.

The vineyards of Morey-Saint-Denis transition from the valley flats to 270m in altitude on the slopes. The region also has a diversity of terroirs – from pebbly, limestone rich soils in the north and south to more alluvial, clay soils in the mid-region.

Domaine Hubert Lignier Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Vielles Vignes 2019

Pinot Noir | Morey-Saint-Denis, Burgundy

The 2019 Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru Vieilles Vignes is shaping up beautifully, mingling aromas of dark berry fruit, orange rind, espresso roast, forest floor and warm spices in an incipiently complex bouquet. Medium to full-bodied, layered and concentrated, it's deep and complete, its serious long-haul structure largely concealed by a lively core of fruit. As usual, this "baby Clos de la Roche" derives from a parcel planted in the 1930s and 1940s that straddles the climats Faconnières and Chenev

A special & incredibly rare white from the Côtes du Nuits! Personlity+++ The nuances of Burgundy's appellation system once again come into play when Ponsot secured a ruling allowing them to produce a 1er Cru white from the 1er Cru Monts Luisants vineyard from what was lambasted as a secondary grape variety by the AOC. This is unlike any other Aligoté I've tried. Where Aligoté is typical the favoured mixer with cassis to make the traditional Kir apperitif, Ponsot's ageworthy version demands

Clos de Tart 1er Cru ‘La Forge de Tart’ 2019

Pinot Noir | Morey-Saint-Denis, France

“This comes from the section known as La Forge, plus a young vine planting from 2011, and “Ballonge 2” where the plant selection could be better – it will be top-grafted shortly. One third whole bunch in the Ballonge component makes about 15% in all. This is a glowing purple colour, without the black. A light reduction on the nose which later shows as toasty barrel. Very complete, sensual, with good unforced acidity, more red fruit than black. Still a certain masculinity. Surprising leng

A broad-ranging nose features notes of violet, lavender, tea, dark cherry and plenty of earth and game nuances. The sleek but notably more powerful big-bodied flavors possess excellent concentration in the context of what is typical for the 2017 vintage, all wrapped in a stony, muscular and solidly persistent finish. As is the case with a number of wines in the range, the tannins are coarse and grippy but they should soften and round out with extended cellaring which by the way this will definit

Aromas of dark berries, baking chocolate, forest floor, spices and plums introduce the 2020 Clos de la Roche Grand Cru, a full-bodied, layered and multidimensional wine that's deep and concentrated, with lively acids, ripe tannins and a long, saline finish. Still primary after a year's élevage, it's built to age. William Kelley, The Wine Advocate 95-97 Points

Clos de Tart Grand Cru Monopole 2019

Pinot Noir | Morey-Saint-Denis, France

“70% new wood. Purple black, with a light reduction on the nose, but a massive heart to it. Waves of fruit, red and black fighting it out, incredible intensity through the middle, a very good little touch of acidity at the back. Clos de Tart is never going to be a sensual wine though there is plenty of flesh on the bones. Perfectly judged ripeness here. Probably a bit more than 50% whole bunch has been used overall, but the decision is made for each individual cuvee. I retasted the 2019 having

Domaine Ponsot Clos de la Roche Grand Cru Vieilles Vignes 2020

Pinot Noir | Morey-Saint-Denis, Burgundy

If I were to name the best Burgundy I’d drunk, Clos de la Roche from Domaine Ponsot would be near the top of the list. A mentholated top note is present on the wonderfully broad-ranging nose of notably ripe cassis, black raspberry, violet, crushed fennel and all but invisible oak hints. There is superb concentration to the big-bodied and intense flavors that coat the palate with dry extract that does a fine job of buffering the exceptionally firm tannins shaping the brilliantly persistent a
