MORTET DENIS

Domaine Denis Mortet is above all a family story. In 1956, Charles Mortet bought the first parcel of this Burgundy vineyard. His son, Denis, succeeded him in 1992 and developed the domaine. When he passed away in 2006, it was the turn of his own son, Arnaud, to take up the torch. Accompanied by his mother and sister, he preserves his father's legacy. Arnaud Mortet practices integrated viticulture to maintain the health of his vines. As a result, each bottle of red wine is the fruit of meticulous care and respect for the terroir, the vines and the grapes.
