Morey Saint-Denis


This appellation takes its name from the Côte-d'Or village of Morey and one of its most famous vineyards, Clos Saint-Denis. This status dates back to 1939. It covers 5 Grands Crus (Clos de Tart, Bonnes Mares, Clos de la Roche, Clos Saint-Denis and Clos de Lambrays) and 20 Premier Crus over a vineyard area of 110 ha. In this guide, we take a look at the terroir of the Morey Saint-Denis appellation and its top producers.

Terroir of Morey Saint-Denis


This French wine-growing village in the Côte-d'Or commune is located some 15 km south of Dijon, at an altitude ranging from 220 to 270 m. The Grands Crus and Premiers Crus are located in the middle of the slopes, while the vines are planted on the piedmont, the lowest and highest slopes. To the east, national road no. 74 separates the vineyards from the Bresse plain. The vineyards of AOC Morey Saint-Denis have several climats classified as Grands crus, Premiers crus and crus. Facing east, the vines grow on well-drained clay-limestone and oolitic limestone soils dating from the Jurassic period. Below the village, the orientation is different. This makes the soil more marly. The village produces both red and dry white wines.
The vast majority of wines produced under this appellation are Pinot noir. Only a few parcels are planted with Chardonnay or Pinot Blanc. In all, 5% of production is made from white wines. Wine styles vary according to terroir composition, grape variety and vinification. Red wines have a deep, brilliant ruby-red color, with red and black fruit aromas and powerful tannins. In their youth, they are endowed with great finesse. As they age, they become fuller-bodied, with "wild" scents of truffle and game. White wines, on the other hand, are very light in color. They are perfectly balanced, powerful, opulent and supple with floral notes. As for the Premiers Crus, they offer more complex aromas of leather, moss and game, with a remarkably long finish.
The wines of this appellation are midway between the masculine wines of Gevrey-Chambertin and the more feminine wines of Chambolle-Musigny. These are red wines for laying down, revealing their full potential after 1 or 2 decades. White wines, on the other hand, have less ageing potential.

The Morey-Saint-Denis appellation is a wine-growing region in the Côte de Nuits in Burgundy, France. It is renowned for its premium red wines produced mainly from Pinot Noir. Morey-Saint-Denis wines are often considered premier cru. The most prestigious vintages are produced in Clos de Vougeot by Joseph Drouhin. Morey-Saint-Denis wines are particularly well-suited to black fruit and red meats.

Our selection of the best Morey Saint-Denis producers:


-Ponsot: this estate, founded in 1872, is currently run by Rose Marie Ponsot. It owns around 13 ha of vineyards, the largest of which is located in the lieu-dit Le Clos de la Roche. The estate produces two premier crus: Chambolle-Musigny les Charmes, and Morey Saint-Denis cuvée des Alouettes. The former are supple-textured, rich wines with cherry and mineral notes on a long finish, while the Cuvée des Alouettes is a sumptuous, intense wine with ripe fruit notes and a long finish. The domaine also produces an extensive range of Grands Crus offering a variety of aromas, as well as a unique white, Morey-St.-Denis Clos des Monts Luisants Vieilles Vignes, made from 100% aligoté.
-Jacky Truchot: the winemaker who owns this estate retired in 2005. But the 7-hectare vineyards have left behind a legacy of prestigious wines that fetch top prices today. These are elegant, romantic, refined wines, with a delicate bouquet of strawberries, red berries and hints of undergrowth, yet they are ripe, graceful and exquisite. The estate is renowned for the extraordinary purity and fragrance of its Pinot Noir.
-Domaine des Lambrays: the creation of this estate dates back to 1363, but it was not promoted to Grand Cru status until 1981. The Freund family made significant improvements in the quality of the wines after acquiring the property in 1996. But since 2014, Clos de Lambrays has been added to the LVMH group's wine estates. The grape varieties are 100% pinot noir. The 8.84 ha vineyards produce a Grand Cru that marvelously combines balance, power and great finesse.
-Georges Roumier: this estate was founded in 1924, but bottling didn't begin until 21 years later. This estate is distinguished by its Musigny and Bonnes-mares. The former are aromatic wines bursting with berry flavors and citrus notes, with velvety tannins. The Bonnes-mares, on the other hand, are very soft, strong wines with a beautiful minerality. Georges Roumier is also known for his Grand Cru Corton-Charlemagne, with a complex bouquet of flowers, fruit and honey, and good acidity. He also offers Charmes Chambertin, a velvety, silky red wine, and Ruchottes Chambertin, an energetic pinot noir with scents of spice, fruit, licorice and fine minerality.
-Mommessin: this company based in Quicié-en-Beaujolais produces fine wines from Gamay, Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes. These are quality wines with a style that combines tradition, refinement and elegance with a surprising mouthfeel.
-Domaine Hubert Lignier: this estate is renowned for its structured, fine, concentrated wines. Its 8.3 ha produce 32 attractive, fleshy wines, including 3 Grands Crus, 11 Premiers Crus and 10 Villages. Among the Grands Crus is Griotte Chambertin, a wine with notes of violets and roses and fruity flavors. Other wines include Bourgogne aligoté, Saint Romain Blanc Sous le Château, Fixin blanc, Bourgogne Passetoutgrain "Aux Poirelots", Bourgogne Rouge "Grand Chaliot" and others. Some of these wines can rival some of the elite appellations in amplitude, power and complexity.
-Armand Rousseau: this estate, founded in the 20th century, also produces wines of remarkable quality from its 15.33 ha of vineyards. These are Grands crus, premiers crus and village appellation wines. It produces 6 emblematic Grands Crus, including Chambertin, Charmes Chambertin, Chambertin Clos de Beze, Ruchottes Chambertin, Clos de la Roche and Mazy Chambertin. These are elegant, racy, concentrated wines with good ageing potential.
