Morey-Saint-Denis reveals hints of smoky berry fruit, rich spices, and rose petals in the glass. Medium to full body, rich and concentrated, with ripe, sun-kissed fruit cores and firm, structured tannins, it comes from vines right above the Clos des Lambrays vineyard.
Domaine des Lambrays, located in the town of Morey-Saint-Denis on the Route des Grandes Vins, is one of the oldest and most prestigious wineries in Burgundy. The grapes for Domaine des Lambrays wines are grown on a narrow plot of land of less than nine hectares, where there were vineyards already at the time of Charlemagne and the Dukes of Burgundy. The clay-lime soil of the Cote de Nuits region contributes to the fact that one of the world's best Pinot Noirs is grown here. In 2019, Domaine des Lambrays began transitioning to organic production and in 2020 to biodynamic production, vinification plot by plot began to be applied, dividing them according to geology. Domaine des Lambrays' ambition seems to be to farm on a vine-by-vine basis, controlling yields much more closely, especially when it comes to young vines. The smart and thoughtful new head winemaker, Jacques Desvauges, is full of energy and enthusiasm and is ready to keep implementing new methods, and with LVMH's resources behind him, the deck is stacked in his favor. Anyone who has tasted the wines produced in the best days of Clos des Lambrays knows that the place is one of Burgundy's greatest and most distinctive terroirs. The Lambier Wines team will continue to keep a close eye on the future of the domaine.
