Pierre Morey Monthelie 1er Cru Rouge 2023

$9999

Pierre Morey is famous for whites, which makes this 1er Cru Monthelie a delightful curiosity - the same biodynamic farming and obsessive cellar work, applied to a small parcel of Pinot Noir in the village tucked just south of Volnay and Auxey-Duresses. Pierre's two decades (1988-2008) at the helm of Domaine Leflaive shaped his hands-off philosophy; daughter Anne is now fully in charge and the cuvees differ mostly by new oak percentage. Monthelie tends to live in Volnay's shadow, but on a 1er Cru site, in this family's hands, it delivers a perfumed, finely drawn red that punches well above the appellation's profile.

More about Pierre Morey

Pierre Morey is a towering figure in Meursault. Along with his own prime vineyards he was also the winemaker at Domaine Leflaive in the 1980's and early '90's. He was one of the first growers in the region to fully embrace biodynamic farming, converting both Leflaive and his own domaine and reaching full certification by 1997. Now his daughter, Anne Morey, has taken the helm and is continuing on the path he started. She is a very intelligent, passionate and gracious person and her talents in the vineyard and cellar are exceptional.
