WINE DESCRIPTION
Domaine Tortochot is a renowned producer of Morey-St-Denis wines, located in the heart of the Côte de Nuits region in Burgundy, France. The vineyards are situated on the slopes of the hills, with a mix of clay and limestone soils, providing ideal conditions for growing Pinot Noir grapes. The winemaking process is traditional, with a focus on minimal intervention to allow the terroir to shine through. The resulting wine is elegant and complex, with aromas of red fruit, spice, and earthy notes. The style is classic Burgundy, with a balance of fruit and acidity, and a long, smooth finish.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Burgundy from Domaine Tortochot shows a complex and nuanced nose of red fruits, with notes of wild strawberries, raspberries, and cherries.On the palate it is medium-bodied, with a gentle acidity, and a fine tannic structure giving the wine a wonderful structure and balance. The finish is long and persistent, with a hint of spice and earthiness. An excellent wine that will continue to develop and reward further cellaring.
