PRE-ORDER About Winery Domaine Denis Mortet traces its roots to 1956 when Charles Mortet established a small estate in Gevrey-Chambertin. Denis joined his father in 1978, gradually shifting the domaine toward bottling its own wines rather than selling to merchants. In 1991, when Charles retired, Denis inherited 4.5 hectares and founded Domaine Denis Mortet, quickly gaining acclaim for meticulous vineyard work and refined winemaking, influenced by mentors like Henri Jayer and Lalou Bize-Leroy. By the early 2000s, the estate had expanded to around 11 hectares across Gevrey-Chambertin, Chambolle-Musigny, and Vougeot. Following Denis’s passing in 2006, his son Arnaud took over, continuing the family tradition with a focus on authenticity, terroir expression, and sustainable practices, cementing the domaine’s reputation as one of Burgundy’s most admired producers.
