WINE DESCRIPTION
Domaine Denis Mortet is a renowned producer of premium Burgundy wines. The Gevrey-Chambertin En Motrot Monopole is a single-vineyard wine from the Gevrey-Chambertin appellation, located in the Cote de Nuits region of Burgundy, France. The vineyard is exclusively owned by Domaine Denis Mortet and is characterized by its rocky soil and southern exposure. The winemaking process involves natural fermentation with indigenous yeast, aging in French oak barrels for 18-20 months, and minimal intervention to preserve the natural characteristics of the grapes. The resulting wine is a classic expression of Pinot Noir, with notes of red and black fruit, earthy undertones, and elegant tannins.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This full-bodied, intense red from Domaine Denis Mortet offers an aromatic nose of blackberry, smoke and leather.The palate is rich and supple, with a core of ripe dark red fruit, spice and a hint of licorice. The tannins are firm and well-integrated, providing structure and power to the intense, robust finish. Enjoy this Monopole now or cellar for up to 15 years.
