The 2018 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru is also showing very well, and Mortet speculates that drier, warmer vintages are ameliorating the lower part of this large appellation—where his vines are located. Exhibiting a rich bouquet of plums and wild berries mingled with blood orange, peonies and burning embers, it's medium to full-bodied, layered and enveloping, with good depth at the core but not the slightest structural asperity.

Domaine Denis Mortet is a highly regarded wine estate based in Gevrey-Chambertin, within the renowned Côte de Nuits region of Burgundy, France. Established in the early 1990s by Denis Mortet himself, the domaine quickly rose to fame under his passionate and meticulous winemaking. Today, it is managed by his son, Arnaud Mortet, who continues the legacy of producing exquisite Pinot Noir with the same fervor and attention to detail that defined his father’s approach.

**Background and Philosophy:**
Denis Mortet was known for his fanatical dedication to quality, from the vineyard to the bottle. His untimely passing in 2006 left the domaine in the hands of Arnaud, who has admirably carried forward his father's philosophy of 'less is more.' This approach focuses on low yields, meticulous canopy management, and stringent sorting of grapes to ensure only the healthiest and ripest are used.

**Vineyards and Winemaking:**
Domaine Denis Mortet encompasses approximately 11 hectares of vineyards, primarily in Gevrey-Chambertin but also includes plots in Chambolle-Musigny and Vougeot. The vineyards are farmed with sustainable practices, leaning towards organic, although not officially certified. The focus on terroir expression is paramount, with minimal intervention in the cellar. Fermentation is carried out with natural yeasts, and the use of new oak is judicious, tailored to complement the intensity and structure of the wine without dominating it.

**Wine Style and Characteristics:**
The wines of Domaine Denis Mortet are renowned for their depth, purity, and elegance. They typically showcase a refined structure with luscious fruit flavors balanced by a pronounced mineral backbone. Arnaud’s style leans slightly towards more approachability in youth compared to the denser style his father preferred, but without sacrificing the potential for aging. The domaine produces a range of wines from village to grand cru level, including highly acclaimed cuvées like Chambertin Grand Cru and Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru "Lavaux St-Jacques."

**Reputation:**
Under Arnaud Mortet, the domaine has not only maintained but also enhanced its reputation as one of the premier producers in Gevrey-Chambertin. The wines are highly sought after by connoisseurs and collectors worldwide, known for their complexity and capacity to age gracefully. Arnaud’s commitment to upholding the high standards set by his father, combined with subtle innovations in winemaking, ensures that Domaine Denis Mortet remains a leading name in Burgundy.

In summary, Domaine Denis Mortet exemplifies the exceptional quality of Burgundy’s terroir and the artisanal winemaking that Burgundy is celebrated for, continuing to produce wines that are both a tribute to Denis Mortet’s legacy and a reflection of Arnaud Mortet’s evolving expertise.

Den franske vinregion Bourgogne er måske lille af størrelse, men dens indflydelse er enorm i vinens verden. Bourgognes kompleksitet kan gøre selv en garvet vinkender bange, men frygt ikke - regionen behøver kun at være så kompliceret, som du ønsker, at den skal være. Ja, det er hjemsted for nogle af de dyreste vine i det kendte univers, men der er også velsmagende og prisvenlige vine.

De vigtigste druer:

Pinot Noir stammer fra Bourgogne, og disse vinstokke dækker 34% af regionen og står for 29% af den samlede vinproduktion. Den røde drue klarer sig ekstremt godt i kalksten og lerjord, hvilket er med til at skabe deres kompleksitet. Pinot Noir-vine fra Bourgogne varierer i farve fra kirsebær til mursten, er lette i kroppen og har typisk rød frugt og krydret smag. Gamay er en rød drue, som også dyrkes i Bourgogne, men den udgør kun 10 % af vinstokkene.

Chardonnay er den primære drue til hvidvin i Bourgogne og udgør 48 % af vinstokkene og 68 % af produktionen. Chardonnay sætter pris på Bourgognes mergeljord, som giver den delikate blomster-, frugt- og mineralaromaer og en fyldig smag. Aligoté er den anden hvide drue og tegner sig for 6 % af produktionen. {Læs mere om den gamle Aligoté-drue i Bourgogne.}

Regionen producerer en mousserende vin kaldet Crémant de Bourgogne. Den kan fremstilles af Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Aligoté, Gamay, Sacy og Melon. Sorterne omfatter blanc, blanc de blancs, blanc de noirs og rosé.

Clos de Vougeot, also known as Clos Vougeot, is one of the most famous and emblematic vineyards in the Burgundy wine region of France, particularly within the Côte de Nuits area. This Grand Cru vineyard is steeped in history, with origins dating back to the 12th century when Cistercian monks first began cultivating grapes here.

**Location and Terroir:**
Clos de Vougeot is located in the village of Vougeot, between the towns of Chambolle-Musigny and Vosne-Romanée. The vineyard covers approximately 50 hectares (about 124 acres), making it the largest single vineyard in Côte de Nuits designated as Grand Cru. The terroir varies significantly across the vineyard due to its size and slight variations in slope and aspect, which results in a range of wine styles from the various producers who own parcels here.

The soil in Clos de Vougeot is predominantly limestone mixed with marl, lending a distinct mineral quality to the wines. The best plots are generally considered to be those located higher up on the slope, where the soil is thinner and the limestone bedrock is closer to the surface.

**Wine Characteristics:**
Clos de Vougeot is exclusively red wine, made from Pinot Noir. The wines from this Grand Cru are known for their robust structure, deep complexity, and potential for aging. They typically exhibit flavors of red and black cherries, earth, and spices, with a firm tannic backbone and high acidity that can evolve gracefully over many years.

**Viticulture and Winemaking:**
Over 80 different owners hold parcels within Clos de Vougeot, leading to considerable diversity in winemaking approaches. Traditional methods, such as hand harvesting, natural fermentations, and aging in French oak barrels, are common, although specifics such as the proportion of new oak and the duration of aging vary by producer. 

**Historical Significance:**
The iconic Château de Clos de Vougeot, situated within the vineyard, houses the Confrérie des Chevaliers du Tastevin, an influential wine society dedicated to promoting Burgundy. The château and its walls, which still enclose the vineyard, were built by the Cistercian monks and are a landmark of Burgundy's winemaking heritage.

**Modern Recognition:**
Despite the variability in style due to the different winemaking techniques and precise plot locations, Clos de Vougeot maintains a reputation as one of Burgundy's most prestigious and sought-after wines. It embodies the complexity and elegance that Burgundy wines are renowned for and continues to be a cornerstone of the region’s viticultural identity.
