The Story

Of all the villages of the Côte de Nuits, Morey-Saint-Denis is one of the most fruitful in terms of the number of its Grands Crus. The Clos de Tart, which remains a solely-held entity, was founded by the Cistercians of Tart in 1141. Since that date, it has been owned by only three families. The Clos Saint-Denis came on the scene in the 11th century, thanks to the fortress of Vergy. The Clos de la Roche and Clos des Lambrays are both semi-monop...

Wine Information

Tasting note

Intense aromas of graphite and mineral make an immediate impact, with black cherry, black currant and spice flavors adding depth and dimension. This has concentration and juicy texture, pushing the long, peppery aftertaste. Shows fine harmony and expression overall. Best from 2012 through 2024. 94/100 (Bruce Sanderson - Wine Spectator Insider - 04 août 2010).

Written Notes

This is distinctive. Fresh, floral perfume on the nose, which shows pure red fruits and a hint of pepper. The palate is vivid and fresh with a lightness and focus, as well as good acidity and grippy tannins. It feels firm and angular in the mouth, and really youthful with a peppery finish. I don’t know how it will age. – Jamie Goode 95p (Oct 2015)

Medium colour. Soft, ripe, gentle nose. On the palate good backbone, more than the nose would suggest. Medium to medium-full body. Good grip. Still some unresolved tannin. Ripe and intense for a 2007, and classy too. An excellent result.

CLOS DE TART 2007 The nose is clearly marked by the vintage with very ripe, almost pungent, dark red fruit that’s on the verge of being pruney and over ripe with dired plums, figues and spices in the background. As lot of 2007s the nose does offer some immediate appeal but not much more. Medium bodied with smooth, juicy, round fruit that’s surpricingly more fresh and balanced than the nose with ripe dark red fruit, strawberries, black berries, damson plums, curry, clove and vanilla. The acidity enhances the finish but it lacks grip and definition. Though fresh the wine doesn’t feel like it will gain much complexity from cellaring but will of course keep. Drink now-2020 89p
