Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy, November 2020

(92-95 points) All the vines are at the northern end of the appellation, from outside the winery through to Brochon. This emblematic cuvée sees 25% new wood and one third whole bunch vinification. Dense purple, with a...

(91-93 points) The 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin "Mes Cinq Terroirs" possesses darker fruit than the Cuvée de Très Vieilles Vignes, blackberry commingled with bilberry and briary, more sous-bois characteristics and a very light...

Burghound, January 2021

(90-92 points) This is at once earthier and more reserved with its combination of red and dark berries along with hints of game, underbrush and a forest floor character. There is a bit more volume to the dense and intense...

The 2019 Domaine Denis Mortet Gevrey Chambertin Mes Cinq Terroirs is a Pinot Noir from the esteemed region of Burgundy, specifically from the Gevrey Chambertin appellation in the Cote de Nuits sub-region. This red wine, produced by Domaine Denis Mortet, has garnered significant attention and praise from professional wine reviewers.

Vinous reviewer Neal Martin awarded this wine 93 points, noting its "darker fruit than the Cuvée de Très Vieilles Vignes, blackberry commingled with bilberry and briary, more sous-bois characteristics and a very light slate-like aroma." Martin describes the palate as "medium-bodied with lithe tannins," adding that it feels "harmonious with an almost satin-like texture, gentle grip with superb tension on the finish." He concludes his review by stating, "This has always been one of Mortet's best 'entry-level' cuvées and this has real class and pixelation. Give it 2-3 years in bottle for it to show its best. Wonderful."

Burghound's review aligns with the positive reception, scoring the wine 92 points. The review describes the wine as "earthier and more reserved with its combination of red and dark berries along with hints of game, underbrush, and a forest floor character." The medium-bodied flavors are noted for their "dense and intense" profile, "evident minerality," and "chiseled and wonderfully refreshing finish." The tannins are described as "noticeably firmer," suggesting that "this is going to require at least some patience." The review concludes with a strong recommendation, stating, "this too is an excellent villages."

Jasper Morris, writing for Inside Burgundy, assigns the wine a high score of 95 points. He provides specific details about the wine's production, noting that "all the vines are at the northern end of the appellation, from outside the winery through to Brochon," and that the cuvée sees "25% new wood and one third whole bunch vinification." Morris appreciates the wine's "dense purple" color and "reserved nose," which suggests a promising future. He praises the "fruit profile that sits perfectly on the cusp of red and black, with a touch of liquorice, excellent length, and an admirable finish." Morris concludes by expressing his admiration for the wine's "reserved quality," predicting that it "will develop beautifully in the long term."

In summary, the 2019 Domaine Denis Mortet Gevrey Chambertin Mes Cinq Terroirs is a highly acclaimed Pinot Noir that showcases the producer's expertise and the unique terroir of Gevrey Chambertin. Reviewers praise its harmonious balance, complex flavor profile, and potential for aging, making it a standout choice for wine enthusiasts.
