Based in Gevrey-Chambertin, Denis Mortet is a family-owned estate run by Laurence Mortet and her two children, Clémence and Arnaud. The Domaine was originally founded in 1956 by Charles Mortet with just a single hectare of vines to his name. This release comes from the prestigious Grand Cru Chambertin, where Mortet owns a 0.15-hectare parcel of 60-year-old vines. These are some of the best reds from the uneven 2001 vintage, showing great purity and expression of vineyard character.

Vinous
Full, bright red. Brooding, very ripe aromas of black fruits, licorice, graphite and gunflint, all lifted by a subtle oaky perfume. Big, broad, rich and okay, with powerful, dense black fruit flavors and excellent length and thrust. Five or six years in bottle should bring greater refinement as the wine loses some of its baby fat.Stephen Tanzer1st March 2004
