Joins directly on to Grand cru Charmes Chambertin with Virgiles holding in the higher part of this tiny vineyard.
The 2019 Morey-Saint-Denis Aux Chezeaux 1er Cru contains 100% whole bunches fruit this year. That comes through on the nose with more tangible sous-bois and black pepper elements, quite open with dusky black fruit and black truffle. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, very lithe in the mouth, the whole bunches are tangible but not overriding fruit or terroir expression. Delicate touches of cracked black pepper and clove line the finish that exerts a gentle but insistent grip. Excellent.

From the upper portion of the vineyard; 100% whole cluster). An even earthier nose reveals its layered aromas of various dark berries and lavender, violet and soft spice nuances. There is more volume and power to the moderately concentrated and muscular medium-bodied flavors that conclude in a firm, austere and solidly structured finale. This should amply reward a decade plus of cellaring.

100% whole bunch. Medium deep red purple, here the fruit is extremely elegant in a fresh floral red fruit style, good acidity, very persistent. Attractive length and finish. Lively and invigorating. A refreshing and balanced Morey. Tasted: November 2020
