Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru

Les Charrieres

This cuvée, with an average vine age of 20 years, reflects the youthful vibrancy of its terroir. Nestled on limestone and clay-limestone soils from the Middle Jurassic, the vineyard benefits from diverse geological formations, including white oolitic limestone and limestone with entroques, which impart unique characteristics to the wine. Situated at an altitude of approximately 250 meters and facing east, the vineyard enjoys optimal sun exposure, resulting in grapes of exceptional quality and flavor intensity. This cuvée is a testament to the potential of young vines.

Domaine Lécheneaut

Nuits-Saint-Georges

Situated in Nuits Saint Georges, Maison Lécheneaut enjoys a prestigious location in the Côtede Nuits, cultivating around twelve hectares dispersed across twenty esteemed appellations.

Founded by Fernand Lécheneaut in the late 1950s, the estate began with two and a half hectares.

In 1986, his sons, Philippe and Vincent, took the leadership of the domain after completing their oenological training in Beaune, continuing the estate's growth.

They acquired many premier cru parcels and enhanced the domain’s viticultural practices.

Notable advancements include the modernization of facilities, the enlargement of the winery, and the introduction of thermoregulation for more precise vinification.

Vincent and Philippe, committed to quality, aim to broaden their appellation portfolio while preserving the familial and traditional essence.

Since 2017, Jules Lécheneaut, representing the third generation, has joined the estate, ensuring the continuation of this esteemed winery's heritage.
