This red wine hails from the Cote de Beaune sub-region, a historic terroir renowned for its Chardonnay, yet equally capable of producing outstanding Pinot Noir.
Crafted by the esteemed producer Domaine Marc Morey, it showcases the rich, concentrated fruit flavors that are typical of the Morgeot sub-appellation, mingling with a harmonious balance of earthy undertones. The bouquet is brimming with seductive aromas of ripe red cherries, wild strawberries, and a subtle hint of forest floor, indicative of its Burgundian origin.

The wine's refined acidity creates a refreshing counterpoint to its velvety tannins, culminating in a long, lingering finish that leaves an impression of sophistication and finesse.
The bottle is sealed with a traditional cork closure, further testament to the wine's adherence to classic winemaking practices. This 2022 vintage, while youthful, already displays the promise of great aging potential, and will doubtless evolve beautifully over the coming years.
