Denis Mortet
Estabished in 1990 Denis Mortet was a colossal figure in Burgundy. Son Arnaud has since been at the estate for sometime now. With 14 appellations and two Grand Crus, Mortet Junior has taken the domaine’s wines in a more feminine direction with less extraction and oak dominant flavours; instead sweet and delicate fruit profiles come to the fore. They are beautiful and remarkably approachable wines, though his top cuvées are extremely hard to get one’s hands on. We advise securing stocks of these wines in our En Primeur offer in January.
Lifted violet and blue fruit-infused aromas. The palate shows a touch of cream on the attack paired with black fruit and fine tannins. A silky wine in the making this is really quite an elegant affair. Drink 2011-2017.

From 70-80 year old vines this has a very expressive nose of cassis and dark berries plus a touch of cream. Lively impact in the mouth with a hint of liquorice concentration and fine tannins. Silky yet lively at the same time. Drink 2012-2019.

A relatively hidden & subtle nose with mineral hints just popping through. The palate though is very lively indeed with more mineral notes good tannins and weight plus some vibrant red fruits. A grippy finish suggests this is a keeper. Drink 2013-2020.

The nose is stony and mineral with touches of charred wood. On the palate there is an overall impression of sweetness owing to bags of ripe summer fruit flavours and a silky texture. A core of minerality keeps it honest. Drink 2014-2020.
