Arnaud Mortet Gevrey-Chambertin Ma Cuvee 2022

Arnaud Mortet Gevrey-Chambertin Ma Cuvee 2022 is a refined Pinot Noir showing strawberry, cherry and red berry character with floral nuances. Sourced from village vineyards in southern Gevrey-Chambertin, it combines lively freshness, fine structure and persistent fruit, with measured whole-bunch fermentation and new oak adding complexity.

Food Pairing: Pairs best with roast duck, herb-crusted lamb, mushroom tart, or veal with wild mushrooms.

The vineyards for ma Cuvee are in the south-east quadrant of Gevrey-Chambertin, so out of the path of the hail storm. Hence Arnaud could make a full crop and could use up to 40 % whole bunch vinification no hail on these plots. They feature 70 year old vines with millerand grapes in La Platiere, in the top part by Les Crais rather than the clay lower part. 25% new wood. Crimson ruby colour, a stricter nose, more strawberry fruit. Pretty enough, less succulent than Mes Cinq Terroirs (Denis Mortet label), but attractive and quite persistent. Drink from 2029-2034.Barrel Sample: 90-93

The 2022 Gevrey-Chambertin Ma Cuvee bursts with aromas of sweet cherries, red berries, plums and potpourri, followed by a medium to full-bodied, ample and charming palate that's lively, fine-boned and pure. As usual, this cuvee derives from the south of the appellation, in contrast to the more structured "Cinq Terroirs" bottling Mortet produces for the family domaine.Barrel Sample: 89-91
