Gevrey-Chambertin is a mythical appellation of the Côte-de-Nuits subregion of Burgundy. A seductive wine of unique concentration and finesse, a rare alliance of purity and balance that Thierry Mortet - brother of the iconic and late Denis Mortet - converts into each of his wines. 

His exceptional heritage of vines, among the region’s most esteemed, allows him to deliver small jewels of precision at still reasonable prices.
