En Primeur | Domaine Tortochot

The Tortochot family have been respected vignerons in Gevrey Chambertin since the 19th century, but it is in recent times, under the stewardship of Chantal Tortochot, that key changes have taken place. After 15 years of working in the oil industry, Chantal moved back to the estate to convert it from being a supplier of fine quality fruit to the négociant house Joseph Drouhin, into her own family domaine. In 2008 she made the next step by converting her 12 hectares to become fully organic.

2023 Morey St Denis Tortochot

£215.00 In Bond
Availability: En Primeur
Availability: En Primeur Status: Released Size: 6x75cl Qty: 2 £215.00 In Bond Status: Released Qty: - £258.00 Inc VAT
  • Goedhuis Waddesdon, December 2024

    This cuvée comes from three separate lieux dits on the lower slopes of Morey St Denis: Aux Chesseaux, Clos des Ormes and Les Crais. Chantal always likes to bottle this cuvée early to preserve fruit purity which is her priority to show off the quality of the commune. Open and easy red cherry Pinot fragrance, with a smidgeon of cinnamon. It flows gracefully across the tongue, with a delicate tannic core. So pure and wonderfully charming.

  • Jancis Robinson, January 2025, Score: 16.5

    Smells wonderful. Earthy, true, fluted. Really pure, singing, gentle; the sweetest of fruit framed by something almost mycorrhizal fragrant. (TC)

  • Goedhuis Waddesdon, December 2024

    From a selection of 100-year-old vines planted by Felix Tortochot in 1920 at the bottom of Côte St Jacques, this cuvée is a very rewarding example of village Gevrey. Gamey with a wild fruit personality, excellent breadth and volume. A lavish and full style, kept carefully in control with its fine sandy tannic fabric and wonderful old-vine length that surpasses its classification.

  • Jancis Robinson, January 2025, Score: 17

    A kind of early-morning fragrance, the smell on your fingers after picking strawberries at dawn. Loam and sweet leaves and warm sweet damp hay and baby oregano leaves. Delicate and yet strong. Like all these Tortochot wines, beautiful in a kind of haunting, evocative way. (TC)

Availability: En Primeur
Availability: En Primeur Status: Sold out Size: 6x75cl Qty: - £345.00 In Bond
  • Goedhuis Waddesdon, December 2024

    This is a particularly special cuvée of Morey St Denis for Chantal, named for its return to the domaine after 36 years on a leasehold her father set up with a neighbour in Morey St Denis. It is a beautiful expression of Morey St Denis, which in itself is an appellation reborn. Sweet tayberry and loganberry flavours, a sumptuous and juicy style, highlighting the sweetness of fruit in 2023. Persistent and very graceful to the finish.

  • Goedhuis Waddesdon, December 2024

    Morey St Denis’s Premier Cru Aux Charmes adjoins Mazoyères Grand Cru. Legend has it that if it had fallen within the more powerful parish of Gevrey Chambertin, it would have been classified as a Grand Cru. With wild autumnal fruit flavours, there is a balance between ample fruit and a controlled core of minerality, with a long, lifting bitter cherry freshness on the finish.

    A well-positioned Premier Cru on the northern border of the commune alongside Brochon. The vineyard’s clay soil gives a depth of fruit that allows Chantal to age this cuvée in 50% new oak, which it amply supports. It combines gentle, subtle bilberry flavours, with a fullness and breadth in its composition. A very composed and classy Premier Cru.

    Lavaux St Jacques is one of Gevrey’s highest vineyards, renowned for making wines of great elegance. The cooling high altitude is offset by its southerly exposure, and the benefits always shine through in this excellent cuvée. The immediate sensation is of the warmth of the location and vintage, with abundant dark berry fruit flavours and hints of spicy oak. The finish highlights the benefits of its location, the cooling nights giving a refreshing lift and precision.

    The vineyards of Mazis Chambertin sit between Clos de Bèze Grand Cru and the village of Gevrey Chambertin and are respected for making deep and powerful wines. Opening with brooding dark berry fruits, this wine swiftly shows its breadth and structure as it keeps building in muscle and depth. The impressive weight of fruit easily supports the wine’s tannic core, resulting in a cuvée with huge potential. Such a fine example of this Grand Cru.

    The jewel in Tortochot’s crown; almost 0.5 hectares of Gevrey’s greatest Grand Cru at one of the highest locations within the vineyard, sitting just below the tree line. Chantal was delighted to have made seven barrels in 2023, but prepare yourselves for just 300 bottles in 2024! A lavish scent of blackberry fool and vanilla pod flows through to the palate. Beautifully composed and poised, this is extremely intense with a long purposeful finish. A wine of infinite stature, true to its prestige and classification.

    Smells like a rose garden. Quiet, insistent beauty. Dark sweetness of fruit. Thrumming undercurrent of energy and cool minerality. Really special. (TC)
