2019 Gevrey Chambertin Mes Cinq Terroirs Domaine Denis Mortet 75cl / 14%

A bottle of 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin Mes Cinq Terroir from Burgundy, vinified by Arnaud Mortet at Domaine Denis Mortet, who first produced this cuvée in 2013.

The Cinq Terroirs (five vineyards) referenced are: Au Vellé, En Motrot, Combes du Dessus, En Champs and En Deré.

The late Denis Mortet was extremely highly regarded as a producer of concentrated, long-lived Burgundies made from meticulously maintained and low yielding vineyards.

' All the vines are at the northern end of the appellation, from outside the winery through to Brochon. This emblematic cuvée sees 25% new wood and one third whole bunch vinification. Dense purple, with a reserved nose, which is biding its time, nonetheless suggesting that all is in place. The fruit profile sits perfectly on the cusp of red and black, with a touch of liquorice, excellent length, and an admirable finish. I love the reserved quality of this wine, which will develop beautifully in the long term. 92-95/100' Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy, 2020
