The Morey St. Denis 1er Cru is striking. A deeply pitched, expressive bouquet melds into layers of dark fruit. The Morey boasts gorgeous textural depth and intensity all the way through to the finish, where cool, mineral notes provide plenty of backbone. The wine needs time to soften, but make no mistake about it, the Morey 1er is a stunner.

About this wine
Domaine Lecheneaut - Morey-Saint-Denis
Domaine Lecheneaut is a family-owned winery located in the heart of Burgundy, France. Their Morey-Saint-Denis is a classic example of the region's Pinot Noir, with a rich and complex taste profile that is sure to impress any wine lover.
On the nose, this wine offers aromas of red fruit, such as cherry and raspberry, as well as hints of spice and earthy notes. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with a silky texture and flavors of black cherry, plum, and a touch of vanilla. The tannins are firm but well-integrated, providing a long and satisfying finish.
The Lecheneaut family has been producing wine in Burgundy for over 200 years, and their expertise is evident in every bottle. They use traditional winemaking techniques, such as hand-harvesting and aging in French oak barrels, to create wines that are both elegant and expressive.
This Morey-Saint-Denis is a perfect match for roasted meats, game, and strong cheeses. It is also a great wine to enjoy on its own, perhaps while relaxing in front of a cozy fire on a chilly evening.
