Precious few bottles emerge from the minuscule Premier Cru parcel that Régis Forey tends in Morey-Saint-Denis—less than a tenth of a hectare of 45-year-old vines that straddle Les Blanchards and Clos Baulet. The 2022 captures raw terroir intensity: concentrated black cherry and plum, wild berry, dark chocolate, cedar, and crushed violets, with earthy undertones and firm tannins that promise development. Régis's tradition-minded approach, now carried forward with his son Quentin, honors Burgundy's uncompromising values.

Regis Forey makes a range of traditional, old school Pinot Noir in the heart of Vosne-Romanée. His domaine is a total of 10 hectares and includes holdings from Nuits-St-Georges to Morey-St-Denis, and include some top 1er crus in Vosne. But the wines (and Regis himself) are not flashy, and indeed they can take careful cellaring to unlock their full potential.

These are the very qualities that first drew famed importer Neal Rosenthal to the estate back in 1982. Indeed this was one of the first Burgundy producers in a portfolio that is now famous for a slew of top-notch domaines and classic wines. What drew Neal to this domaine are the same qualities that his entire portfolio exemplifies: pure, unadulterated expressions of terroir.

What importer Rosenthal Wine Merchant has to say about this wine...

There is precious little wine produced from this miniscule parcel of less than 1/10th of a hectare of 45 year old vines. The single parcel crosses the boundary of two 1er Crus: “Les Blanchards” and “Clos Baulet”.
