Denis Mortet Bourgogne Rouge 'Cuvee de Nobles Souche' 2022

As always, the fruit for this wine comes from the plateau at Daix, near Marsannay. The vines sit at 400 metres, bringing significant freshness and purity. Meanwhile, the very low yields contribute remarkable depth and ageworthiness. Even at this level, over 50% bunches were included, and only 10% new oak. This has always been a brilliant Bourgogne, and the 2022 is absolutely true to form! It is truly superb for the level.

“The 2022 Bourgogne Cuvée de Noble Souche is pretty and giving, bursting with aromas of plums, raspberry liqueur and rose petals. Medium-bodied, supple and succulent, it will drink well on release.” 88-89 points, William Kelley, The Wine Advocate.

“Fresh deep purple, with its usual very exciting lifted bouquet. A full succulent raspberry and fresh plum fruit, adequate acidity, refined tannins, and super length.” 88-90 points, Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy.
