Domaine Denis Mortet is a producer from the village of Gevrey-Chambertin in the Côte de Nuits of northern Burgundy. It is known for its high-quality wines made from Pinot Noir.

 

The wine portfolio of Pinot Noir is produced in modern style with finesse and delicacy, a side steps away from traditional Burgundian Pinot Noir. The cuvée collection includes multiple grand crus from Bonne-Mares, Mazis-Chambertin, Échézeaux and Clo-de-Voudeot.  

 

At the founding of the Domaine, Mortet had 11 acres (4.5 ha) of vineyards but quickly began to expand. Parcels were acquired in the Premier Cru vineyard Lavaux Saint-Jacques in Gevrey-Chambertin as wells as in Motrot, Vellé, Champs and La Côte des Longeroies in Marsannay. The estate continued to expand to its current standing at 27 acres (11.2ha), culminating in the purchase of a portion of the grand cru vineyard Le Chambertin.

 

Denis Mortet eliminated chemical fertilizers and weed killers in 1996 and today, all of the fruit is hand-harvested. In the winery, grape berries are sorted twice to ensure optimal quality
