Domaine Thierry Mortet

Domaine Thierry Mortet is a highly acclaimed wine producer located in the Burgundy region of France. The estate is known for its exceptional quality and unique expression of the terroir, making it a favorite among wine enthusiasts and critics alike.

The domaine was founded by Thierry Mortet in 1992, who took over the family estate from his father, Charles Mortet. Thierry's passion and commitment to producing high-quality wines has propelled the domaine to great success, with their wines being sought after by collectors and connoisseurs around the world.

The estate covers a total of 9 hectares of vineyards, spread across prestigious appellations such as Gevrey-Chambertin, Chambolle-Musigny, and Morey-Saint-Denis. The vineyards are meticulously maintained, with a strong focus on sustainable farming practices. This attention to detail and respect for the land is reflected in the wines, which showcase the true essence of the Burgundy region.

One of the key factors that sets Domaine Thierry Mortet apart from other producers is their commitment to low-intervention winemaking. The grapes are hand-harvested and sorted to ensure only the best fruit is used. Fermentation takes place with natural yeasts, and the wines are aged in French oak barrels for up to 18 months. This minimalistic approach allows the wines to express the unique characteristics of the terroir, resulting in elegant and complex wines.

Their range of wines includes a variety of red and white Burgundies, with their flagship wine being the Gevrey-Chambertin "Champeaux" Premier Cru. This wine consistently receives high scores from top wine critics, with its intense aromas of dark berries, spices, and earthy notes, and a silky smooth texture on the palate.

In addition to their exceptional still wines, Domaine Thierry Mortet also produces a small amount of sparkling wine, using the traditional method of Champagne.
