Tasting notes
Aromas of red and dark berries, layered with delicate violet florals, introduce a rich and expressive palate. The oak is well-integrated, complementing the wine's medium body and enhancing its overall balance and drinkability. Elegant and approachable.
More About The Winery
Domaine Morgan Truchetet is a small, family-run estate based in Prémeaux-Prissey, just south of Nuits-Saint-Georges in the Côte de Nuits. Morgan Truchetet, alongside his sister Julie, represents the sixth generation of the family and took over the domaine in 2019, bringing a fresh, terroir-focused and low-intervention approach to both vineyard and cellar.
The estate spans around 6 hectares, planted mainly to Pinot Noir with smaller parcels of Chardonnay and Aligoté. The vineyards are located across Bourgogne, Hautes-Côtes de Nuits, Côte de Nuits-Villages, and villages including Nuits-Saint-Georges, Morey-Saint-Denis, and Gevrey-Chambertin. Farming follows organic principles, with meticulous vineyard work, low yields, and a strong emphasis on vine health and soil expression.
Winemaking is precise and minimalist, using indigenous yeasts, gentle extraction, and a careful, restrained use of oak to preserve purity and freshness. The wines are known for their elegance, vibrant fruit, and fine tannic structure, reflecting a modern yet classic interpretation of Côte de Nuits terroirs.
