Morey Saint Denis 1er Cru Les Chenevery Domaine Lignier Michelot, 2022

From the esteemed village of Morey-Saint-Denis in Burgundy, this 1er Cru Les Chenevery from Domaine Lignier-Michelot offers the kind of precision and finesse collectors look for in a serious Pinot Noir. The 2022 vintage brings together the site’s refined character with the domaine’s understated, terroir-driven style, making it an elegant expression of one of the Côte de Nuits’ most respected appellations.

Tasting Notes
Expect a bright, polished ruby color in the glass. The nose is typically lifted and layered, with aromas of red cherry, wild strawberry, violets, and subtle earthy and spice notes that reflect the Morey-Saint-Denis terroir. On the palate, the wine is usually supple yet structured, combining ripe red berries with fine tannins, fresh acidity, and a savoury mineral edge. It should develop beautifully with a few years in bottle, gaining depth, forest-floor complexity, and greater silkiness over time.

Production
Les Chenevery is a Premier Cru site in Morey-Saint-Denis, where Burgundy’s limestone and clay soils help produce wines with both finesse and structure. Domaine Lignier-Michelot is known for careful vineyard work and respectful winemaking, with hand-harvesting and a restrained vinification approach designed to preserve purity and site expression.

Food & Serving
This is a natural partner for roast duck, game birds, mushroom risotto, veal, or aged cheeses such as Comté or Époisses. Serve slightly cool, around 15–16°C, and consider decanting for 30–60 minutes if drinking young to allow the aromatics and texture to open up.

Producer
Domaine Lignier-Michelot is a respected family-owned estate in Morey-Saint-Denis with deep roots in the Côte de Nuits. The domaine has earned a strong reputation for producing detailed, expressive Burgundy wines that highlight the personality of each vineyard, and it is especially valued by enthusiasts seeking authentic, high-quality Pinot Noir from a traditional Burgundian producer.
